Can you tell us about your journey as an artist?
Having grown up in an environment with a father who is a manga artist, I loved drawing from a young age and continued to do so throughout my childhood.
However, I was not initially clear about becoming a professional. The turning point came when I published my first art book "感0" in 2016 and held my first solo exhibition, "きみ、あなた、おまえ."
