STATEMENT OF ART:
I am a great interest in nature especially the system of nature. My works have been obtained the inspiration from nature such as “Solar”, “Air”, ”Water”, ”Ground”, “Crystal”, “Biological”, “Flower”, and “Aurora” etc. Because these aimed to approach “Nature” more closely, my works are named “Nature-oriented Architecture”. I believe that it is suitable for the 21st century.
