My work, which uses threads and strings to create shapes, consequently has the aura of line sculpture, which embodies a three-dimensional shape with lines.
However, it has unique properties and methods in the process of creating the shape of existence with the selected thread as a material that is difficult to form a sense of mass with more meaning in the process. And they became the basis for expanding the scope of the work
These properties and phenomena were based on thread implementation, such as thread phosphorus, variable properties due to tension, the need for labor to be repeated to have mass, and properties influenced by space without support, and through the process of understanding and overcoming them, the form and performance of installation art.

I think I focused somewhat on the point of existence at the beginning of the work. Expressions such as the existence of the country and the willingness to exist as one had to be thread and thin lines. This eventually made me realize the absolute necessity of space and time, and I came to understand the point of blurring the boundaries between me, others, and the inside and outside of me.
Now I accept others and other beings and feel keenly that many things in this world are connected. And it's never anything ideal that's stopped or weighed. The world moves, mixes, standards change,increases, and there is a possibility of extinction. The more you acknowledge this, the more precious your daily life is.
Working using thread and string for a longtime, I would like to expand the scope of my daily life through residency programs and collaboration, and also look back on the past time that has become history over time. I hope that this experience will be given the power of thread to realize another moving landscape, batter, and future.
