artist’s statement
My dream is to make art that has life and communicates visually to all people. Sometimes crafts are viewed as inanimate objects, however, through the use of the movement of light and objects, I believe art can inspire various emotions in people. [...] the hearts and emotions of people can be moved by having a mutual feeling emanating from the work of art. This is the type of art that I would like to create.
