Set eyes on delicate Japanese traditional colors. The color which shines brightly in the nature will be matured and give out other kind of beauty in a short time. Keep the world of such natural colors in my mind.
As flowing water, soil or air does not have a shape, the expression of painting is not so easy to create. However, I keep painting in pursuit of "the truth of painting" like the natural colors which glow strongly.
古来より日本に伝わるこまやかな和の色を見つめる。自然の中に映える目も覚めるような色彩も、やがては枯れて別の美しさを放つ。そんな自然の色の世界に心を留める。
流れる水や土、空気に形がないように、絵画の表現もそのように容易に構築されない、しかし強く映える自然の景色のような「絵画のありよう」をもとめ、制作を続けています。
“我们凝视着自古以来在日本盛传的充满浓重日式风格的色彩。
鲜艳的色彩映照在自然中,不久便会褪去,释放出一种别样的美丽。
这般充满自然色彩的世界留在了人们心中。
绘画的表现形式也如同流水、土壤、空气一般无形,无法轻易构筑,
但是我们仍会不断探索和创作如同光彩夺目的自然景色般的‘绘画的理想状态’。
Fixe les yeux sur la couleur délicate et traditionnelle du Japon.
La couleur ravissante qui brille dans la nature, elle se flétrit finalement et dégage l'autre beauté.
Retient le monde de la couleur naturelle pareille dans le coeur.
Ce n'est pas facile de créer l'expression de la peinture, comme l'eau coulant, le sol et l'air n'a pas de forme.
Cependant, je reste à peindre en recherchant "La Vérité de la peinture" comme le paysage de la nature qui brille fortement.

Walls Tokyo Art Collection / Genealogy of Modernist Painting
Walls Tokyo
[Scheduled to be exhibited]
Jun Ogata, Victor Vasarely, Kazuo Shiraga, Josef Albers, Yasuyoshi Tokida, Akira Fujimoto, and others

Modernism in painting is characterized by a belief that the purity of a painting lies in its flatness, and that the materials (mediums) themselves, such as canvas and paint, are shown as they are.

Modernist paintings, which are devoid of illusionism and narrative, as if a three-dimensional space has appeared, go well with simple and neat interiors and modern Scandinavian design furniture.

In this exhibition, we will display and sell a number of works that follow the trend of modernist paintings. We look forward to your visit.
This time, I delivered new artworks to the RYUKYU HOTEL & RESORT NASHIRO BEACH as a commission work, which was inpired from colors and plants in Okinawa and also the shape of peninsula.
This hotel, was opened in this summer, is well known as the largest resort in Asia. Hope you can see my new artwork.
