Profile

My work explores spatial contexts and relations through drawing and architectural construction, reflecting on the spatial and tactual implications in architecture where perceptual notions are rendered as common factors in sight and touch. I engage in collaborative initiatives in architecture with Professor Shinichi Ogawa, Tokyo.
