Location: eplus LIVING ROOM CAFE & DINING, Tokyo, Japan At eplus LIVING ROOM CAFE & DINING in Shibuya, I have had the opportunity to present multiple exhibitions and live painting sessions over the years. The relationship began with a simple moment. When I first visited the space, another artist’s exhibition was on view. I felt an immediate connection to the environment and asked the staff if I could exhibit there as well. At the time, I was told that the schedule was alread

POD Hotel Brooklyn New York, USA This mural was created for POD Hotel Brooklyn, a space that exists between the ordinary and the extraordinary. The composition was designed to change depending on where it is viewed from. Rather than presenting a single fixed image, the work unfolds through shifting perspectives. The central tree motif is based on the actual trees outside the building. By aligning the real trees, the painted tree, and their reflections in the window, the work

Dashi Brooklyn New York, USA Dashi Brooklyn operates as a space where different cultures and perspectives intersect. The mural reflects this condition through layered lines that expand without forming a single fixed image. Instead, the work remains open, allowing multiple interpretations to coexist. The composition emphasizes connection without hierarchy. Elements overlap and interact, suggesting a shared but fluid identity. By embedding this openness into the space, the mu

ART PROJECT TAKASAKI Gunma, Japan Developed as part of a regional art initiative, this mural engages with both place and community. The work introduces a contemporary visual language while remaining responsive to its surroundings. Continuous lines create connections across the space. It encourages interaction and redefines how the environment is experienced. Through this process, the mural becomes part of a larger dialogue between people, place, and perception.

Fujitsu Limited Kawasaki Office, Japan Agent: WASABI (NOMAL Inc.) This mural was created for the Kawasaki office of Fujitsu Limited, based on the company’s core values: Trust, Empathy, and Challenge. Developed as a “vision wall” within the workspace, the piece translates these abstract values into a visual language built entirely from lines. In this work, the act of connecting lines itself becomes a metaphor for trust—an invisible force that only exists through relationships

Produced by: NOMAL Inc. Location: Sumika, Tokyo, Japan Paint Support: Nippon Paint Co., Ltd. This mural was created as part of a live painting project involving nine artists, centered on the theme “Humanity Facing COVID-19.” Because of the weight of the theme, I did not decide what to paint until the night before the production.

場所　Southbank Skate Space 時期　2019年12月 ダメ元で応募したロンドンのアートコンペに通り、展示の機会をいただいたので数日間滞在することに。レセプションパーティー以外の日に時間があったのでアート巡りをしに、サウスバンク地区にある近現代美術館Tate Modernへ行ってみると、そこにはずっと見て見たかった作品たちがずらり。 中でもピカソの"泣く女"は、画像で見るのとは歴然の違いで、筆の跡が生々しく残り、色褪せず、静かに展示されていた。雨の中、朝一でいったこともあるが、周囲には人がおらず、近くで見たり、遠くで見たり、しばらくずっと凝視していた。 『 泣く女 』は、パブロ・ピカソが1937年に描いた絵画作品。ピカソが写真家であり絵も描いた愛人ドラ・マールをモデルにした、有名な作品の一つ。ドラ・マールは感情をあらわにするタイプの女性だったようで、ピカソにとってドラ・マールはまさに「泣く女」そのものだったようだ。 そして「泣く女」は、ドラのポートレイトであると同時に、同年に制作されたスペイン市民戦争におけるドイツ軍による空爆図

クライアント　 グリッジ株式会社 場所　 船場マンション 時期　2019年8月 「破壊と創造」をテーマに、総勢11名のクリエイターたちが昭和・平成で解決できなかった社会的な問題や伝えたいメッセージを表現してマンション解体と共にその価値観なども壊し、持続可能でよりよい世界を目指す国際目標の「SDGｓ」を国境を超えるアートの力で取り組むという企画に参加。 自分が選んだテーマは人種問題。 ちょうど当時BLM運動も始まり、改めて人種間の隔たりを感じさせられた瞬間だった。 自分自身、ニューヨークに5年ほど住んでいたこともあり、そのときにアジア人を蔑視する人たちから心無い言葉や態度を取られたことが少なからずあった。 のちにコロナウイルスの蔓延によってアジア人へのヘイトは高まり、"STOP ASIA HATE"運動も始まることになるのですが、それまではアジア人はそもそも話題にすらされないマイノリティー中のマイノリティーという立ち位置だったように思う。 自分の中で強く残っているのは、 ニュー ヨーク市警が２０１３年２月に当時２４歳の日本人留学生小山田亮さんをクイ
