An individual's choice of fashion from a combination of personal factors such as emotions, soul and visual preference. What is the relationship between the body and soul? Now, the external brain has come into modern society due to advancements in the technology lend to changes to the human body in the future?

Life has been evolving continuously for over four billion years on Earth.

The power to survive may lie in origins of nature and natural selection.

"Wear". Oceanic and undersea lifeforms have designed unique apparel for themselves so they may protect themselves form the osmotic pressure of the sea and from their natural predators.

As the ocean provides me with the theme for my designs, my world view as inspired by the beauty and immeasurable power of the organic shapes and cells of mysterious undersea creatures is expressed in my art.

With heightened visual and tactile sensitivity I experiment with raw wool, a blessing that has been given by sheep to people since ancient times, and which forms a medium between what is art and what is a functional use of art, in a continual personal conflict for me.

The motif of the sea anemone is to represent a mysterious life form. Stimulus to receive from them will be projected into my works of design, and may become apparel for humans. Bags and objects are also the same thing.

I believe that by my art works being worn around the world, my art will become known by people all around the world.
