Born in Tokyo. After studying painting at an art school and working as an illustrator, he turned to iron sculpting. Largely self-taught in blacksmithing, he is now a metalwork artist based in Kumage, Yamaguchi Prefecture. His diverse body of work encompasses flower vessels, lighting, tea ceremony utensils, and sculptural objects, drawing out delicate expressions through the inherent qualities of iron—rust, flame-cutting, and bending—combined with traditional forging techniques. He has held numerous solo and group exhibitions both in Japan and abroad.
