We tend to forget that plants have existed since before we humans were born and that we are “kept alive” by the blessings of nature. We must also realize that the stability of human life is guaranteed by the existence of various organisms in the natural world. We depend on plants for most of our daily needs, including food, medicine, clothing, building materials, and livestock feed. I respect plants, want to keep them alive, and want to preserve their beauty even when they die. With this in mind, I have formed my own unique love of plants and established a diverse range of expressions, including painting, sculpture, and photography, to face the creation of my work.
