Lives and works in Tokyo
It is said that the development of photography is deeply tied in with painting.
Starting from the idea that "something exists there",I create a space to photograph not only by capturing a scene before my eyes, but also through the process of transposing images seen in the mind into actual colors and shapes.
In so doing, I seek a sensual engagement with the surrounding environment that is included in the act of seeing.

写真はその成り立ちにおいて絵画と深い関わりがあると言われている。
’そこに在る’ということを起点として、目の前に広がる情景を捉えるのみではなく、頭の中のイメージを色や形に置き換えていく作業を通して撮影空間を作り上げ、見るという行為に含まれる周りの環境との感覚的な関わりを求めて制作をしている。
