He originally worked as a film, graphic designer and contributed to large-scale image displays mainly for feature films, events as Tsukuba Expo '85, Nara Silk Road Expo '87, and Design Expo Nagoya '89, Edo-Tokyo Museum. With 90's shift to digital media, he focused on multimedia projects \u0026amp; other visuals as graphic designer. He has received numerous awards from such competitions as Opel Design Contests, Epson Imaging Contests,and Victor Video Festivals. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"float: left; text-align: left;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eHe preferred physical to virtual art forms.

It very much reminds me of a raked Japanese Zen sand garden with gold leaf standing in for the sand's color and sparkle.
