I left the familiar behind to reimagine life.

I paint, I make books, and I live in the space between things — between city and countryside, the domestic and the foreign, East and West. Right and left, back and forth: I have stopped trying to land on a single side. The world keeps asking me to choose — 0 or 1 — but I would rather stay where many things are true at once, where countless possibilities go on existing, in parallel. Slowly, I am making room for art to live here, in Iga.

I do not seek success as the world defines it. I seek freedom of soul. I lean into curiosity without attachment, and step into new realms without hesitation.

I am not here to provide solutions. I am not here to offer comfort. I am here for the raw, incomplete dialogue that only a few are ready to face.

I have left the small transactions of time and resources behind. I am waiting for those ready to explore the unknown with me.
