statement
My first solo exhibition was in 2018.
Since then, he has held a total of 12 solo exhibitions.
There are exhibitions of still lifes, exhibitions of drawings, exhibitions on the theme of pause,
He has managed to come up with new themes and expressions for each of his solo exhibitions, such as an exhibition inspired by a scene from an animation.
I think it's about time to take a moment to look back at this point.
I have a mountain of ideas behind me that are too good to be a one-off.
I will replay the 12 chapters from the past and re-edit and re-draw them as I am now.
One season of anime is usually 12 episodes.
CHAPTER 13 will be released as a compilation before the new chapter.
