Based in Kyoto, I have primarily focused on painting. I strive to depict images at a stage prior to aiming for a finished result, characterized by an approach that views the visible and invisible as equally important.
Starting from images that emerge at moments when I perceive immediate reality as inseparable from thought and language, I treat the consciousness that attempts to express these images in the same way as external reality. Through this process, I attempt to generate paintings where images integrate with bodily movements and intentions, directly transferring them onto the canvas. In recent years, alongside painting, I have also begun working with ceramics, moving between two- and three-dimensional forms. The time it takes for an object to manifest as a form and the process of perception have become important elements in Matsuda's current practice.
