            Artist
                  Statement
              
              
               I was
                born during the Second World War in what is now North
                Korea, near the border of the former Soviet Union. 
                Immediately following the end of the war, I moved to
                Hiroshima, where I spent my childhood amidst the
                devastation of the A-bomb.  As a child, I always
                lived with a sense of indescribable danger and
                uncertainty.  I believe that these feelings
                permeated my body and awakened my desire to
                create.  In my creative process, the reality of the
                moment or the fact of being alive and present emerges
                from my psyche and transforms into shapes, colors,
                inspirations.
               
               Our
                survival depends on production, which inevitably brings
                about destruction.  The consequence is that nature,
                which is central to our existence, is becoming
                drastically unbalanced.  We must pay attention once
                more to life itself: interconnected, vibrant, and
                mysterious life.  My mission is to leave behind the
                beauty of life in my art.
