Namae Series

Namae Series — Painting Commissions
A painting drawn from the inspiration of your name ✴︎

【What is your name?】
A name, like a short song, conjures an image of the person who carries it. This isn't anything extraordinary — it's something ordinary. An image, a scent, a single story.

【Let's unfold the map】
When your eyes meet the painting, how do you feel today? Know the present location of your heart through the five senses.

When you return from a journey, the painting greets you with "welcome home." How will the changed you feel about the same painting? Imagine having a painting that is yours alone, living within your daily life.

The Namae Series is created with the wish that the work becomes an heirloom — for you, for your family. It's not a fashionable piece. It's something closer to a charm, a guardian; something that could become a scroll, a treasure passed down.

The shape, the sound, the resonance of a name. An experience like traveling back beyond even oracle bone script.
