About me

hi. I'm a artist who express monologue about my childhood.
when I'm a young child, I played with robot in television, and computer game. So, it was time for me to come up with such a robotic fantasy. Then, because of his little fancy, he did not mingle with the surrounding people. But I was fond of drawing a robot-fancy character on a small paper in an apartment where I lived in my childhood. I looked at the character on paper, and I felt the core of my emotions openly, and my playful work was my real work. I paint my emotion from my childhood with matiere technique.
* To interpret the meaning of "Gyudopia" in the title of the work, "gyu" refers to "my self portrait", and the "Dopia" is interpreted as "a child who want to avoid to his own fancy world." Through these titles, I want to express my own utopia through the interpretation of "The self portrait who want to go to his own fancy world".
Work / Education
I like my robot art work. because, the robot artwork are implicted my harmony of emotions about sorrow, and happy.
My work is to communicate to modern man who builds the emotional core of each individual's experience , even though it is a work that contains only his own monologue. in my future, I will extend building of my own monologue.
