Can you briefly introduce yourself?
1990 Born in Tokyo, Male, Otaku.
What title would you put on your artwork, collaboration with Gentle Monster? And why?
“VR goggles” The shape of the ‘VR goggles’ has been extended as a visualization of function, but the original function and use of the goggles has changed. It does not function.
What message did you want to express and deliver the most through your work？
For this project I wanted room to allow for diversification – to expand the options of possibilities for eyewear.
Tell us more about your creative process.
#1 After being assigned to a client, I gather materials tailored to their requirements. #2 I use materials that have elements that blend with my intuition. #3 Patchwork is applied to better balance the final design of the piece. #4 Last step is to paint the final design.
Where and how do you find inspiration?
From all things, events, and experiences in the universe and on Earth, and topics that I am strongly drawn to.
Do you have any future plans as an artist?
Unknown, like the quest for the location of the quantum.
What would you pick 3 keywords that describe your work?
I’ve never thought about it and I cant think of anything.
