It all began with a simple desire: to express the world of *ukiyo-e* through glass beads.

From everyday items like earrings and watch straps to "gimmick art" pieces where words such as "Katsushika Hokusai" or "JAPAN" emerge from the design, I constantly explore new possibilities for showcasing the beauty of glass beads and create a diverse range of works.

I primarily use top-quality Japanese glass beads. I deeply captivated not only by their vast array of colors and varieties but also by their exquisite, beautiful forms—a testament to the brilliance of Japanese craftsmanship.

Like a performer of traditional Japanese arts—or perhaps like a *geisha*—
captivating the viewer, fleeting yet beautiful.I invite you to immerse yourself in this world of glass beads.
