My works are inspired by daily life that express the feeling of imperfect situations when dealing with “art”. In Japanese this term is known as Wabi-Sabi. We all encounter different obstacles through the way we explore the meaningful ingredients in our life, especially in art. For me, I'm an average worker in a mega corporation. I want to use my unique sense of expression and limited resources to form my own style and the flow in my art, so I began to learn how to make outstanding art utilizing the lowest budget. With my iPhone 6s and a pair of Ikebana scissors, I found the most inspiring and interesting thing in my life of expressing Ikebana. After composing each arrangement I do a photo shoot and then edit the photos. I focus not only on revising the light of the photo but also sometimes add illustrations to it. Sometimes I paint an abstract backgrounds with bird-like motifs, sometimes I imagine a tea bowl on the table. I think it's Wabi-Sabi to me. Flow with my own mind and follow instinct to merge the real flowers into digital imagination. _
