About The Artwork

Rippling water, distorted street, walking people.... We are surrounded by many unpredictabilities. I like finding unpredictability in my surrounding. Our society have developed depending on preciseness too much, making us blind. Traditional Japanese culture, however, appreciated something unpredictable. I try to return to the culture that I am based on. I have practiced watercolor painting to describe the value in the fluctuations by overcoming the blindness. As a biologist, I have been analyzing the molecular dynamics in living cells. My research and growing evidence support the fact that resilience of life derives from the fluctuations rather than preciseness. Many scientists have realized that our world cannot be explained only by preciseness in which the fluctuation is not considered. This paradigm shift inspired me to create values from unpredictability. This incentive is getting stronger since I started painting four years ago. I prefer watercolor painting because it essentially causes many fluctuations. I paint quickly by minimal stroke to let colors move spontaneously. Color moves on paper, causing connections, diffusions, and segregations. These events are stochastic and out of my control but give some reflections of reality because they capture the transience. I often travel and paint on location to more enjoy unpredictability. Unexpected effects come out every time I paint. It makes every painting unique and alive.

I'm a researcher of molecular biology of plants. Science and technology have changed our life with accuracy but we still depends on ambiguity to describe our unpredictable world. Fluctuation is a key to find how the robustness emerge from unpredictable world and benefit from it. Watercolor is the best medium for me because it has many fluctuations. I try to describe the connections between human and nature by focusing on fluctuation that is often ignored in our life. We can find robustness and richness in ambiguity.
