My work can be summed up in one word: nostalgia.
It is a mythical image of nostalgia, longing, unreachable places, and sources of memory.
According to Jung, a myth is a dream shared by people.

My paintings are more influenced by literature and mythology than by painters.
Kafka, Haruki Murakami, and Joseph Campbell are the backgrounds of my work.

I would like people to appreciate my work by placing themselves in silence, just like reading.
