The artist, born in 1968 in Japan, studied at first oil painting. Further, he was also interested in photography. Since the late 1990s, he lives and works in Germany, where he completed advanced studies at the Academy of Media Arts in Cologne.
Flowers are a recurrant motif in his recent work. He alludes to the Japanese symbolically loaded cherry blossom as well as to traditional European still lifes with flowers. ‹Bloom› is for the time being the final work in that series. The video installation is shown at Choisi - one at a time, an art room that is linked to Artphilein Editions, where exclusively art books are published.
