Creativity

I felt that my life was washed by the beauty of yellow flowers by a riverside and brilliant trees and grasses. Today I went to the Keiko Koma Skyrocket center and made costumes for my concert in Iran. I had them made with reference to a photo of Koguryo’s wall paintings. I had chosen a special textile interwoven with a pattern of peony flowers and dyed in purple that I called the color of Koguryo. Everything there I loved. Another one using Chirimen textile with three dimensional cutting technique was also very beautiful. I enjoyed creating things that expressed my internality. At night there was a monthly Idaki entrepreneur course and Mr. Idaki Shin said that through his courses we were allowed to develop and manifest inner potentials. A life without exercising one’s potential to the full was not a meaningful human life. It was time to realize one’s true self and deepen the meanings of being born as humankind. We started creating our own things and spaces as I could not encounter anything attractive in a boutique nor find a truly relaxing coffee shop. I was grateful as we had opened Café Akira in Roppongi and the Koma gallery Café in Kyoto. I wished to create more spaces and things that would express the beauty of human internality.

Shining May

I heard that the day I was born was a truly lovely day; everything was shining and everybody was happy. Since childhood, I felt extremely grateful to be born in this world with a mission to open up a future for humankind. As I encountered Mr. Idaki Shin I realized this. I would create a world that would allow everybody on earth to live a truly human life and to acknowledge an eternal world. I would like to express my gratitude to every human being on earth and pave a way for a global peace.
