At last, tomorrow, the 31st is the last day of WONDER PALLET. With favor of the owner, the gallery is opened to 8:00pm! There are a lot of works that WONDER PALLET is the last exhibition. I'd love for you to visit.
Basically, I don't put on wears except for plain clothes or ones I remade. This is one of my favorite T-shirts. I make my clothes for a change of pace in spare moments from my work. I like plain T-shirts because they are really playful materials. I've already made several ten T-shirts since the beginning of this year.
Friends of my San Francisco times came to the gallery. I haven't seen some of them for 8 years and we enjoyed talking about that time. A friend showed me my drawings that I had drawn in her notebook. I've utterly forgotten them and as if I saw the drawings for the first time.
The gallery closes this Monday and Tuesday. I am working for the next show in my studio.
A creator Pon visited again today. I have met him through this solo show. Our encounter was by chance, and he got into our film project, Spaceegg Studio. We enjoyed talking about the project. I'm looking forward to a day when our flowing ideas will come true. And Takao from Rokujo-Hitoma is going to compose the music.
I'm doing drawing every day at the gallery. Now there is a lot!
After you enjoy seeing the works, take a break at the sofa with my picture book.
Today is the last Sunday of my solo show. I'm waiting for you till 17:00!!
The rain continued all day. Thank you for your visiting in the rain! I feel so glad that a lot of people come to visit my solo show. It seems to be fine from tomorrow. If you haven't yet, or hope to see once again, I'd love you to come! WONDER PALLET has only 4 days left!
Now opening solo show, WONDER PALLET, there're 5 days left to the last. Thanks to everyone visited the gallery! I also enjoy this space, because I will never see many of the works soon.

There are two of my unpublished books exhibited in my solo show. The one is a picture book named “A Tender Tale.”(2002) And the other is a wonder photographic collection, “Field Adventure.”(2004) They are pretty popular among who visit my solo show and, if you come, sit and enjoy them on the sofa!
I can come across various kinds of people when I'm in the space of my solo show. Those who have known about my web site, or those who interested in my works at DEBLI. People who have looked forward to seeing my solo show in Japan, and people whom their friends have recommended. Fans of Rokujo-Hitoma, and people who visit the gallery by chance.
Relationships with people like the above sometimes make a miracle effect. I've got wonderful energies from all the people visited my solo show.
A week has passed since my solo show started. I promote a friendship with some audiences, and that provoke me into creating. I started a film project with my friends last year. Recently I think seriously about the plan, and the plan seems to be started in the near future. I want to make film works in which my characters move with music. The members are gathering. I'm excited. When talk with the members, I can feel that everyone is spoiling for creating.
My solo show, WONDER PALLET started today in Tokyo. In Japan, few years have passed since the previous solo show.
I'm creating, mostly decorating the space in the gallery. I like that the atmosphere changes little by little from the first day to the last day. That is what I say, "to create something, obeying my flexible brain cells.” And without knowing, this becomes a rule for "my solo show.” For me, solo show should be more than a show in which the works are simply exhibited. Creating is always in progress. So the changeable space also means my way of representation.
I don't think things the above at all. There is only one thing in my mind. That is, I can't stop creating.
Carried the works into the gallery in the rain. The show is named “WONDER PALLET,” and starting tomorrow. It was the next day when I came home. My works filling all the space made a pleasant scene. Most of the pieces are new, and there is POSSIBLE, that work is one of my favorite. This work glows with a wonderful power!! Hope you can feel it at the gallery.

The last-minute preparations for my solo show are going well. The show starts 7th.
Telling the truth, I was sick in bed last week. But I got rid of my bad condition through helping of some friends. They help me when I'm in trouble. I really thank to them.
Anyway, a culture magazine in South Africa interviewed me last week. Felt a different impression from America or Europe. I've imagined South Africa is “faaaaaaar away” from where I am. So I'm very glad that there are people who have favor with me in the place like South Africa.
