Fascinated by the complexity of Japanese writing and its unfamiliarity to Western audiences, the artist delves into the world of unintelligible ideograms and words without spaces. Finding beauty in the vertical, right-to-left nature of Japanese text, they embrace the challenge of translating this unique form of communication into something tangible for Western viewers. Through their concept of calligrams, the artist transforms characters into tangible objects, bridging the gap between cultures and languages.
With a blend of Western education and Japanese heritage, the artist finds themselves in a unique position, feeling like a bridge between two worlds. This sense of duality fuels their need to communicate and validate their emotions through their art. As a member of REBELWORDS.ORG, a collective of artists focused on blending poetry with visual art, the artist continues to push the boundaries of conventional expression.
Their work serves as a testament to the power of art as a universal language, capable of transcending cultural barriers and connecting individuals on a deeper level. With prints available for purchase, viewers are invited to bring a piece of this cross-cultural dialogue into their homes and offices, adding a touch of uniqueness and creativity to their decor.
