About Me

I’m fascinated by glass shapes that look as if they’ve been frozen mid-melt. I primarily create transparent human figures with a sense of dynamism—as if they might spring to life at any moment. Crafting these figures is pure joy, and I plan to keep making them. I’m also drawn to how transparent glass captures and reflects the surrounding world, which inspires me every day.

My Work

Through my pieces, I invite viewers to savor the present moment and immerse themselves in the world each work creates, with the hope that it enriches their enjoyment of life. My transparent figures have no fixed identity, gender, or age—they are not any one thing. Depending on the theme, they can freely transform into anything. I’ve long held a desire to become someone different while also resisting being the same forever. I believe these transparent figures can resolve that inner conflict and set us free.
