Strawberry Kimi Series" This work expresses a mix of color, numbers, and synesthesia. Color is closely related to human memory. There is even a phrase "sepia-toned memories. The natural scenery you visited one day may be more beautiful in your memory than it is in reality. The temperature we feel is often expressed in colors. Although we are not conscious of it because it is so obvious, color is so closely related to people. In the "Ichigo no Kimi" series, I expressed numbers in colors that I feel, and by applying the base colors (numbers) to a certain formula, I came up with a color scheme that is highly related to the surrounding colors. I believe that the way people perceive the colors will change depending on their emotions and feelings at the time. And please don't deny yourself the sensation you felt at that time. The sensation you felt at that time was you, and this work will always affirm you. You chose the colors of this work, and this work is you. I think it will always be close to you and accompany you.
