KiyaKiya
"KiyaKiya" takes its name from the Japanese phrase "mune ga kiyakiya suru"—something I first read about in Shibusawa Tatsuhiko's Introductory Essays on Girls. The phrase captures that weird, unsettling feeling of déjà vu mixed with nostalgia, almost like a glitch in memory. That's what inspired the whole series. The work explores those random moments in everyday life when something suddenly feels off, when reality seems slightly shifted. It's that uncanny sense of recognizing something you shouldn't—like a memory of something that never quite happened. This feeling is what drives both the concept and the visual execution across the paintings and drawings.
