1. Please tell us about your profile.

​

A writer from Chiba Prefecture.

Taking the complex emotions and instability of young people as his theme, he expresses humanity through facial expressions of hesitation and frustration. Emotions that can be seen as negative can sometimes torment people, but at the same time they give people a sense of being alive. His representative work, "LOST BOYS," is a perfect example of such a moment.

2. What first got you interested in art and artists?

​

I've loved drawing since I was a child, and I often drew for fun. Previously, I was mainly working on client projects, but as the theme I wanted to express became clearer, I started to paint with acrylic paints on canvas. I'm clumsy and not very good at talking, so I feel that painting is the most effective way to communicate something to someone.

​

3. Please tell us about the theme of this exhibition.

​

The theme of this work is "ESCAPE". I drew it with the theme of escaping from the hustle and bustle of the city into nature. The work shows the LOST BOYS enjoying nature, set in lakes, mountains, forests and norm.

​

4. Could you please give us an artistic commentary on the main visual work this time?

​

This is a scene from when they were escaping from the city by car. The Lost Boys get a little flustered after taking a wrong turn on the way. It will be a good memory to look back on later.

​

5. Please tell us if there were any difficulties or challenges you faced in creating the items for this exhibition.

​

It wasn't difficult, but I was particularly conscious of incorporating the atmosphere of the exhibition location into the work. I started by imagining how the LOST BOYS would spend their time in the nature-rich area around norm. I personally love the outdoors, especially camping pictures, so I had a lot of fun creating this work.
