Pioneer of crypto art in Japan (since Apr. 2019)
In April 2019, I began creating NFT art as a "Crypto Artist" on the iOS application "Editional," becoming the first Japanese person to do so. I had no prior experience in creating visual art and started my career entirely self-taught. My works, which combine the philosophy of blockchain and Japanese culture from a unique perspective, were recognized and officially certified as an artist on major overseas marketplaces such as SuperRare, KnownOrigin, and MakersPlace. The number of my own NFT art pieces sold so far exceeds 2,000, with a total transaction volume, including secondary sales, surpassing 300 ETH.
In April 2023, I spoke as a speaker at the world's largest NFT event, "NFT NYC 2023." In June, I held my first solo exhibition as a Japanese artist at the digital gallery "NFT Factory Paris," expanding my activities globally.
