Read!

A simple line suggests the profile of a two-dimensional book, unfinished, encouraging the audience to interpret and “complete” the work. It is a nod to the subconscious. The work does not end with mere observation; rather, it grows with it.

Loup-ne

This piece evokes a full moon and the howl of a wolf. Its title, LOUP-NE, is a French play on words combining ‘loup’ (wolf) and ‘lune’ (moon), just as the work itself combines a rusted steel plate with polished metal, creating a striking natural contrast.

Toro Bravo

A simple, seemingly fragile line reflects all the strength of a fighting bull. The rust patinas were intentionally initiated, but it is nature—water, light, and air—that truly shaped them. Humility!
