A painting inspired by your name ✴︎

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

For instance, 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 — paintings drawn from the inspiration of a name — is created with the aim of becoming an heirloom for you and your family.

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