Concept
Myochikirina fantasy creatures that appear in 'dreams' during sleep. I started creating fantasy creatures in glass eight years ago. The first glass fantasy creature I created was a fluid, green-coloured creature called 'Forest Incarnation'. For about eight years, she has held solo exhibitions of her fantasy creature series in the Kansai region (Kyoto and Kobe), but from 2021 she will change the venue to Tokyo to present her work and renew her commitment to solo exhibitions.
In these uncertain times, I hope you will feel the life force of these fantasy creatures, which have created a paradise called 'Silence and Peace' in their own hearts and are evolving freely.
