Available in gallery

• This series of works is developed mainly in mixed media. The improvised forms in resin express the unclassifiable and undefinable, while the gold leaf represents the strength of unknown energy.

• In the series, "Unknown Power," I focus on the unknown of the world and ourselves, and its unlimited energy. The improvisatory forms made of resin manifests the concept of the unknown, and the gold leaf applied to its surface expresses the unknown energy's strength and power.

• Believing in the unknown power of the world and ourselves can extend the boundaries of our perception and bring about a new understanding and hope for the world and ourselves.

• There are things in this world that cannot be "defined" or "categorized."
Each of us, each thing that exists in this world, and even the world itself, is inherently more diverse, more unknown, and more full of possibilities than we realize.
Believe in the unknown within yourself. If you do, the world will become more wonderful.
