Biography
I was born in 1963, and had been brought up in my teens in a country town in Niigata Plain famous for its paddy production, named Niitsu, which was merged into Niigata City in March 2005, Niigata Prefecture, Japan. Niitsu was formerly famous both as an oil-rich town and as an important junction of three main rail lines, as well. I've ever been inspired by the interrelationships between the productive agricultural, industrial and commercial activities, and the seemingly idyllic country-scape, which have developed over Niigata's towns and countryside.
