He was not specially educated for arts. He suffered from panic disorder and lived away from work for the treatment. After that, while he was unable to return to society for a long time, he wanted to make something impulsively and started making work using iron by himself. His style of art is a relief. It is an extension of the design image for the work and leads to the creation of his painting. He tried to take concreteness away and express the essential inner surface. Currently, he feels things like room, space and border from his work, himself and things. And then, he represents them as a figure and pattern with the concept and relationship based on lines. He explains that for him, making art is like filling in the gaps. He also explains that the drawing line itself is the boundary of the gap.
