I am synthesizing my training in traditional Japanese painting with modern mixed media techniques to investigate ideas of identity and living between cultures.
Using metal leaf, hide glue, oil paints, and crushed stone, my work pulls from material traditions of both East and West. I often draw and paint the human form, particularly my own, as a way to digest and convey identity to viewers in a new way.
I studied at Tufts University/School of the SMFA, and as a government funded research student through the Japanese Ministry of Education at the Tokyo University of the Arts, where he intensely studied Nihonga within the Nihonga department there.
I am currently working and living in Massachusetts, USA
