I create works based on the theme of creatures that are both sad and happy, and cute for both young and old, and I also pay great attention to the sense of humor.

Art activities started in 2016.

Using various pigs as themes, he creates and publishes animal paintings and picture books.

In 2017, he held his first solo exhibition "Thousands of Pigs" at TURF Gallery in Dotonbori.

In 2019, the follow-up solo exhibition "Thousands of Pigs and Ten Thousand Pigs 2" will be held in Tomita Forest Gallery blau katze. Since then, solo exhibitions entitled "Thousands of Pigs and Ten Thousand Pigs" will be held in Osaka and Tokyo every year.

From 2022, he began to break through the theme of pigs, and vigorously carried out creative activities in various forms of expression such as three-dimensional modeling.

In addition to holding solo exhibitions in galleries and participating in French project exhibitions, he also participates in exhibitions in department stores, etc.
