First of all, I treasure the following three elements more than anything else.

 

- Decorativeness of miniature in the Middle East - Brush strokes in the Japanese traditional ink painting such as Jakuchu Ito - Raw canvas

 

My artistic practice is characterized by the composition of layers through bringing out their each potential in the pictorial space. Surrealistic optical illusion, that is a custom unique to painting, is also one of my interests. I believe that painting can create an unique imaginary screen by using multi-viewpoint and multi-layer. I always expect that the artwork, that even the artist herself can be amazed, will be able to give huge impact to ordinary audience beyond the normal surprise. Therefore I always try to create “the painting which is impossible to see all elements at a glance.”
