In Tsuchiura City, Ibaraki Prefecture, where I was born and raised, there is a fireworks display that has continued since the Taisho Era. Tsuchiura City has come to be known as "the city of the three greatest fireworks in Japan. It is this Tsuchiura Fireworks that has become the magma of my passion for creating my artwork. Tuchiura Fireworks" is a collage of gorgeous fireworks using cardboard, clothing, kimono scraps, acrylic paint, and sequins. I hope this work will bring brightness and cheer to those who come into contact with it.
