Description

Words heard from the work
You can't understand the umami in me that's left.

I painted this work with the image of a teacup with grains of rice left in it.
The rice grains on the bowl are made of Japanese paper to give the impression of real rice.
In the background, I used a large group of grains of rice and the actual palm of my hand to represent a feast.

Even a single grain of food is a precious life given to us.

Main painting materials: sumi ink, face painting, watercolor, pen, Japanese paper, watercolor paper

Concept

Being here and now. Just like that, I encounter people, everyday scenery, objects, and various other things, learn about their feelings and expressions, and memories are born. They are assembled like a puzzle in the depths of my mind and transformed into strange forms. These distorted, ugly, and beautiful things are called "KEMONO," and I bring them into the world in the form of artworks. My children are not mere creations, but proof of your existence in the here and now, and I hope that I can be a catalyst for you to ask questions in your mind and to evoke your own unique kai-mono in your heart. And I will continue to give birth to monsters, hoping that these monsters will become living things with life and death that connect people with each other and create new stories.
