In this solo exhibition, which will be the last of my student life, I traced and painted memories like light within myself.
Dazzling light, comforting light, and light that blurs my vision, all of them are my precious memories.
I will exhibit oil paintings and Japanese-style paintings, which I have been challenging myself with for approximately two years now.
Please feel free to stop by.

＜Regarding the Exhibition＞
For me now, painting means facing myself, and in the process of creation, I have come to feel my own emotions more strongly anew. That is a very joyful thing, and at times, it is also painful.

While facing myself, what was important to me was memories like light within myself.

Since I started learning art, I have been painting the light of various emotions that I saw through my own eyes, with colors as I felt them.

Looking forward also to the way I approach my paintings gradually changing in my future life, in this solo exhibition, which will be the last of my student life, I collected moments of light painted with all my current best effort.

In my first solo exhibition "Blink of Night" held the year before last, I mainly presented works depicting light in ordinary scenery at dusk or night, but this time, not limited to night, I will present works interweaving new and old, including brighter and many increased colors, and changes in painting style, so I would be happy if you could enjoy them.

Cold days continue, but I have been preparing so that it will be a warm exhibition where you can take a sigh of relief, so please feel free to stop by.

After learning oil painting at Hokkaido University of Education Sapporo Campus, and passing through Sapporo Art Academy, I challenged myself with Japanese-style painting at Sapporo Otani University, and have continued creating through trial and error.

Besides landscape paintings, I also paint flowers and abstract paintings, etc. I like to paint using many colors as I feel them.
