Concept of life as a plastic artist (self-proclaimed): The theme of my expression has been aimed at the liberation of human beings. The condition is that all people, including myself, are free to think and live. Of course, this is an expression that lives in the artificial space of the city. I have often visited urban formations, architecture, plazas, parks, public art, museums, and fine arts in my travels to the U.S., Europe, and other places starting in the 1970s, and have reported many examples that are useful for bottom-up efforts in Japan in books, newspapers (mainly Sankei Shimbun), magazines (Shoten Kenchiku, Nikkei Architecture, Art, Anthropos, etc.). He has reported numerous case studies of art and art in Japan in books, newspapers (mainly Sankei Shimbun), and magazines (Shoten Kenchiku, Nikkei Architecture, Art, Anthropos). He believes that nature is not to be imitated when it comes to the works of art he creates, and that it is the domain of the gods. The purpose is to create "works of art" using human imagination, creativity, and accumulated skills.

Born in Hokkaido, Japan in 1944, he graduated from Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music, Department of Sculpture in 1968, and was a research student at Otani Laboratory, Department of Urban Engineering, University of Tokyo from 1968 to 1970. 1969 May: Awarded the Concours Superior Prize at the 9th Contemporary Art Exhibition of Japan.He has participated in more than 40 group exhibitions, including the Japan International Art Exhibition (sponsored by the Mainichi Newspapers), the 1988 Nasu Sculpture Symposium, and a group exhibition at Spiral Garden. He has held about 60 solo exhibitions almost every year, and has always tried to present his works in a different way each time, or rather, he feels that it would be meaningless to continue as an artist if he did not do so. Perhaps it is this "lightness" of change that has not been to the liking of Japanese art lovers. Today, I am still in the situation of a fledgling artist... I call myself a modeling artist as a category of artist.
