Comments for everyday productions
In 2007, he started up an artist group and started "Gallon" with 6 writers and researchers.
In 2019, it was set in the former Toyoji Wada residence (nationally registered tangible cultural property)
at Homon Kaikan in Oyama Town, Shizuoka Prefecture.

Established the exhibition executive organization "Utsuroi no Izumiten Exhibition Executive Committee".

Later, it developed into a local art festival as "Oyama Toyomon Arts Festival".

The paintings as an axis for the expression of the strata, the equilibrium and the twists and turns of society, which develops expressions that reconstruct the context of Japanese painting and culture.

In modern society, various things such as old and new,
culture, and thought are mixed and integrated in the tide of the times.
I would like to entrust these aspects to a structure that is chained in an indeterminate form,
and express them as large swells and sometimes as distortions and deviations.
