Biography

Born in 1994

From Tokyo, Japan

 

He paints the Jade Sun world to express the mythical world. He paints landscapes, having research to actual places such as Kozu Island or mountain scenes. Having been in such places, he has done drawing and photographing to capture the real landscapes. Taro also shows us the connection between Man and nature.

He graduated from Waseda University in Japan in 2016 with a major in law.When he was a senior, he visited Yap island in Micronesia. He lived as the local, saw the tropical wood where crabs walked on and fathoms of the blue ocean, the silver nights of the stars and the moon. Then, he realized that there is something like a valley between where he is and the world having the life breathing. He had felt being away from art. After graduation,he realized his path was art, started photography and writing in 2017, painting in 2018.
