b. 1989, Yokohama, Japan
spent his early childhood in the United States and Canada.
In the spring of 2011, following the earthquake and tsunami,
he began taking photographs as a way to trace the light and events unfolding around him.
What began as a small act of noticing gradually became a practice of listening.
Over time, it turned into an attempt to measure the subtle distances that waver between self and society, memory and pain,
by gently reaching into the currents of time that continue to flow beneath the surface.
Author of A RED HAT (AKAAKA, 2020).
Received the 36th Higashikawa Awards for Special Photographer of the Year (Japan) in 2020.
