For over three decades, my professional life has been dedicated to architectural design—a practice of structuring space, considering boundaries, and understanding how human beings inhabit environments. When I returned to painting at the age of fifty, it was not a departure from architecture, but a profound extension of it.

To me, a canvas is not a flat surface; it is a dynamic field of spatial relationships. My work bridges the structural discipline of architectural planning with the intuitive freedom of fine art. Guided by a Japanese aesthetic that values the eloquence of margin (yohaku) and the subtle depth of texture, I explore how lines, forms, and colors can alter the perception of an environment.

Every stroke is an inquiry into presence and absence. I treat the canvas as a threshold where the physical world meets the emotional realm, creating a visual harmony that does not merely occupy a room, but actively coexists with the architecture around it. Ultimately, my art is an invitation to experience space not just with the eyes, but with the senses—finding a quiet, enduring resonance within the structures of our daily lives.
