He is also well supported by musicians and artists, and has been involved in advertising and product design.

In this exhibition, the theme was how to "concretize" the abstract, formless, and invisible things such as memories and impressions, and how to express them in computer graphics.

. Below are the words of Takahiro Yasuda. . Since these words were important in touching on the exhibition, we are posting them verbatim.

. saw an unusually strong light at an unexpected time.
It's so pure that it's hard to describe , it's the light that people are waiting for.
The magical intensity of the light enveloped the people, as if there was a momentary presence of vitality there to solemnize the depressing days. I felt as if I had been confronted once again with something obvious.
I thought that all light should be directed to magically show the unseen world for someone who has always been there, and give them hope. In the presence of strong light, everything disappears. It is nothingness that shapes it.
What you can create for yourself is a light that can only be put into your eyes for a moment, and as soon as you close your eyes, it is gone.
The human eye is not a camera.
One sees as one wants to see. Only what one wants to remember , leaves a vague light record in the brain.
If you call that expression, I still have a lot to learn.
Maybe the magic I longed for and loved was actually nothing there, like light and halation.

About 10 graphic-based two-dimensional works will be exhibited at the venue, and an opening reception with the artists will be held on Friday, December 7, from 7:00 to 10:00 p.m. .

How ambiguous are the scenes you see and the memories you input into your brain? The works that question the physical mechanism of human beings and the instability of the senses are sure to be different and more interesting than those of ordinary works.
