For me, photography is not an endpoint but a vessel—
an interface where memory, myth, and matter intersect,
where sensation and information converge.
To burn, to scratch, to peel, to touch—
these acts are not meant to destroy,
but are processes of perception that add unspeakable layers to the image.
Memory passed down from one matrix to another,
and in embodied knowledge drawn from folk beliefs —
my works open spaces where the visible and invisible intersect.
Photography is no longer a record,
it quietly emerges as a circuit
where sensation and data interlace.
I treat it as something that can become a yorishiro—
a medium that can serve as a catalyst for something to arise.
As the body and information repeatedly interact,
I attune myself to the process through which memory and emotion become connected.
Each manual operation is an act reconfiguresing memory.
It is not a solitary task,
but a quiet practice that emerges as a shared sense of perception
in which boundaries become blurred—
a movement between body, language, and data.
Touching fragments of dreams beneath the ash,
I pick up faint memories and traces—
only by rendering them fragile
can they survive within an overwhelming flood of information.
Even forgetting becomes an act of care—
a quiet form of persistence.
