Kaka / Wood sculptor. Born in China in 1995. Completed the Master's program in Fine Arts at Joshibi University of Art and Design in 2021. Based on the traditional three-dimensional technique of "Ichiboku-zukuri" from the Heian period, he creates works that explore the themes of the creation and transformation of life. In working with wood as a material, he has come to see not only the completed form, but also the temporality and physicality inherent in the act of carving itself as the core of his expression. In his recent "Mushroom Bird" series, he fuses the disparate creatures of fungi and birds to create sculptures that explore the evolutionary process and the fluctuating boundaries between species. The mushroom's ability to change shape in response to its environment overlaps with the artist's own inner sensibilities, and the sculptures transcend mere symbols, emerging as beings that encompass the cycle of life and the irreversible flow of time. By emphasizing the balance between the texture of the material and the form, and not overly defining meaning, the works offer the viewer the opportunity for multi-layered interpretations.

Born in Fukuoka Prefecture in 1987. Graduated from the Faculty of Arts at Kyushu Sangyo University. Influenced by subcultures such as manga and animation, he creates works that are set against the backdrop of the visual environment of video, the internet, and the post-smartphone era. Influenced by the ideas of simulationism and sampling, he has been quoting and reconstructing existing images and information to visualize the contemporary sensibility where reality and fiction, the everyday and the virtual intersect. In recent years, he has used green screens and green canvases as the support for his works, reversing their function to explore a structure in which a device that originally erases the background illuminates "what is erased" and "what does not remain." He questions the contemporary image environment while finding meaning in excluded and invisible images.

Born in Saitama Prefecture in 1993. Using ceramics, a material that lies between practicality and art, he creates works that relativize value standards such as purpose and perfection. Since his university days, he has come into contact with both "tableware for use" and "tableware for viewing" through working with chefs and at a pottery dealer, and has physically learned about the history and practical aspects of ceramics. In the "#figure" series, he likens what would normally be considered defects, such as kiln changes, peeling glaze, and pinholes, to "rare pop," a term used to refer to monsters with a low appearance rate in games, and presents them as being full of coincidence. By deliberately turning parts that would be discarded if they appeared in a vessel into figures, he shifts the boundary between failure and success in ceramics, and questions the very perspective of ceramic appreciation.
