I started my career as a manga artist, but after being recognized by Takashi Murakami, I have been active mainly in Europe as a painter.
The longer I lived outside Japan, the more I have come to realize how Japanese I am.
Likewise, the more I drew on materials other than manga manuscript paper, the more I have become aware of my background as a manga artist.
While paining, I imagine that hundreds of years later, Japanese manga characters would live on in a similar way that icons from Medieval and Renaissance Italy continue to captivate us today.
