Concept

Painting is an act that is given to everyone, not only to those with a background or recognition. How can one express one's own personality without being influenced by the eyes of others? This is not limited to the arts, but is a necessary element for society to carve out its future. In order for that freedom not to be controlled by anyone else, I believe that art exists to explore and develop a world that is uniquely one's own. I have a serious physical disability. In drawing, I can only hold a pen with four fingers. This is not something to be pessimistic about. It is not something to be pessimistic about, but a great opportunity to create a new contemporary art that only a very few people can experience. I take advantage of my disability and pour my whole heart and soul into a single painting to give it a perspective and emotion that many people cannot see. The soul I put into my work may not be able to move or empathize with many people. This is because my paintings are not limited to people with disabilities, but they are messages to people who are hurt, struggling, and have lost hope for life, as well as to those who seriously support them.
