For a period of over 15 years, I have been creating artworks using computers.  Occasionally I am asked why I use computers for this. There are still many people who believe that artworks should only be drawn on canvas or other in the traditional way.

I wanted to become a pioneer of expression, and I wanted to pursue this in a form of expression unique to myself.  Digital has been the best tool for this purpose. Even now I continue to research and make new discoveries as I create.

Furthermore, I thought it was truly a shame just how much modern art, architecture, and interior design have been separated. Up until the Middle Ages regardless of East or West, interior design and the fine arts had beautiful relationships. By the 20th century however these paths came to be pursued separately, and ended up quite remote from each other. 

While this development was necessary, I believe it is time to bring them together again. I am continuing to develop a project entitled " Interior Design and Digital Art Project", displaying digital art I have created in an architectural space. I aim to perfect interior design by creating and installing images and wallpapers that take into account the identities of my clients, as well as the functionality of each specific installation environment.  

It is likely that with the progression of AI and the internet of things, spacial design and architecture will undergo vast changes. Digital art must be flexible and adapt to these changes, and I will proceed with this project with the vision of creating a new culture.
