PROFILE

切り絵作家。1982年、石川県金沢市生まれ。 小さいころに、母親と一緒に切り紙遊びをしたことをきっかけに切り絵を始める。滋賀県、伊吹山の麓を拠点に、日々出逢う自然や野生動物の姿を伸びやかに描く。精密な切り絵作品にとどまらず、大掛かりなインスタレーションやライトアップを手がけるなど、新しい切り絵表現の可能性を模索している。

Papercut artist. Born 1982, Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture. First began to create papercut art as a child after cutting paper for fun with his mother. Currently based in Maibara, Shiga Prefecture, his work draws from the scenes of nature and the animals he comes across on a daily basis. In addition to small, finely-crafted papercut works, he is now searching for new modes of expression through the form, such as large-scale installations and illuminated pieces.
