Born in Shiga in 1976. Lives and works in Tokyo. His scratch videos from soap operas or popular Japanese TV animations are fragmented and juxtaposed. In the work After Soap Operatic repetitions of the shout of the actor hardly makes sense. Obviously the works are a critique towards a deceptive function of mass media and capitalism. As he mentions himself as "Unproductive Production Activist," he creates his pieces meaningless by using TV programs that are mere temporal comfort for him. He also posits a question to the copyright industry that makes difficult to show his works.
A solo exhibition “Correction Collection” was held at Pepper’s Loft Gallery, Ginza in 2005, and he has participated in numerous group exhibitions and has received various art awards.
