私は女性像を描く。
女性達の純心さや他へ向けられる無償の愛、
私が描きたい女性像はこれらの美しさだけではなく強さを秘めた女
真の強さとは、
儚く脆い、けれども強く美しい女性像を一歩下がった視点から、
私が作品を描き続けることは旅を続けている感覚に似ている。
旅の過程で新たな価値観と出会い、昇華し作品へと還元していく。
新たな価値観はこれまでの私の価値観と溶け合うように、柔軟に、
そうして生まれた新たな作品と共に次の旅に出られることの喜び、
I paint female images.
I see the part of beauty not only in their purity, graceful figure and unconditional love towards others, but also in their negative aspects such as slyness, vanity and jealousy, which all females equally present sometimes.
The figures that I want to depict, in addition to the beautiful appearance, are the ones who posses strength inside.
I believe that the real strength is the flexibility, which makes it possible to adjust themselves to the world that changes every second.
I want to paint ephemerally fragile, yet strong and beautiful female figures with love.
Keep making artworks means the same as the continuing the journey to me. A journey helps me to meet and sublime new sense of value. I reconstruct the new sense of value into the artworks.
The new encounter naturally merges into my sense of value. Sometimes it could react against the existing one. And the new sense of value appears in the artworks.
It is my motive power to keep making artworks that going off on a new journey with new work.
