I majored in graphic design at the university and learned photography at the same time. After graduating, I got a job as a designer at an advertising agency, and changed the job to the public relations of the optical manufacturer. Then, I have seriously started making photography artworks. I like to explore the world around me and my inner world. I learn what is there and deepen my thoughts. In my photography, My personal experiences often motivate me to start creating works. Eventually, it leads me to the fundamental theme of our life and I want to express what I think and get from there. Hopefully, I will be able to convey messages to people all over the world, beyond countries and races, which resonate deeply with souls.
