東京を拠点に活動するA-Mashiroは、油絵やアクリル画から画家としてのキャリアをスタートし、現在は写真家としても活動しています。初期の頃は感情のままに描くスタイルでしたが、次第に色彩や構図を重視するようになりました。これは、創作が彼の感情のバランスを保つための手段であり、作品の中に自身の理想を投影しているからです。

A-Mashiro has been creating for over 20 years, initially painting in oils and acrylics and now also working in photography. In his early years, his style was to paint according to his emotions, but gradually he began to focus more on composition and color balance. This is because creation is a means of maintaining his emotional balance, and he projects his ideal image onto his work.

Mashiro released ‘Misalignment’ for Bright Moments Tokyo. A 100 edition hand-painted collection. “My primary goal is for viewers to find enjoyment & beauty in it. If I can bring a touch of glamour to the lives of those who appreciate my art, I consider it a success.

Deconstruction and reconstruction of color and composition.
