Resurrection
Seeds drop on a fallen tree, giving birth to new life. The forest is a Paradise on Earth resulting from this cycle of life and death. In Resurrection I have expressed a vision of the imaginary flowers that bloom there through clay.

Love Lotus
The garden often represents mind of universe in Japan. This tiny inner garden was inspired by nature in Hagi where I was born. I hope you will enjoy the mystical world which resides in plants and moss.

Myo
Myo is a Buddist term that is very difficult to translate, but I like to think of it as "wonder," or the mystic harmony of the natural world --a concept beyond logic or words. I understand myo as an illusional landscape of both darkness and clarity that I attempt to expose through the sublime and sensual beauty of the lotus flower.
