I never had the idea to hang moving images on the wall!

Framed video art can be displayed on walls or placed on shelves in living rooms, bedrooms, reception rooms, etc., and can be used as interior decoration in offices, stores, commercial facilities, public facilities, and any other places. Purchasers have commented, "I had never thought of decorating the wall with moving images. The complex and subtle movements of the video are so enjoyable that you can't get them from still images, and it makes you want to watch them all the time." I often watch the videos before going to bed, and the mysterious music and images soothe me. The mysterious music and images soothe me and help me fall asleep smoothly. I can fall asleep smoothly and sleep well.

In addition, a video work created in collaboration with internationally popular digital drawing artist Keisuke Tsukimitsu (legendary music producer who has worked with popular artists such as BOφWY, ZIGGY, and LINDBERG) and new works for the NY Art Fair 2023, which will be exhibited from September 23 (Saturday), will also be on display. The exhibition will start on Saturday, September 23.
