In the process of creating works, there are many thrilling experiences, such as motifs and spots of eradicating produce unexpected effects and the phrases that jumped into eyes and ears will lead the work to completion. I want to esteem highly such " useless" and "noise". Myriad cracks and scratches that make deliberately are one of them, and recently it is often to stick foreign objects and ready-made items.
The future theme is to spin out "trivial myths" by works and exhibition space.
