Having the introvert personality, it was difficult for me to communicate with other individuals…even to a fellow Japanese.
However, In this past 3years and a half, I was fortunate enough to meet a lot of cool/awesome/fantastic souls.
Best Friends those I spent time with every Saturday, friends who have helped me during my rough times,
people that have supported my art, and many fellow artists who have inspired me through out this time in NY.
Words cannot explain how much I appreciate each and every one of you.
And the only way for me to show this appreciation is by art. Through my pieces.
Life…is not meant to be lived alone. I, myself, certainly can't.
I wouldn't be here today if it were not for everyone's support and help.
Many of you have left a mark on my heart and Now I would like to leave a mark on your heart as an 'artist' in return.
And that mark, Hopefully, even after I leave NY, will remind you of me from time to time that ”Chain was here.".
I won't say good bye…I'll just say, Until we meet again :)
Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart.

Japanese:
3年半前、誰一人知ってる人がいないNYに来た。
日本語でも日本人同士でも話す事が苦手な自分は人とあまりコミュ
だけど、3年半の間沢山の人に出会った。
言葉にならないくらい感謝してる。
だけど、一人一人に言葉で上手く伝えることができない自分は、
Self portraitを初めてかきたいと思った。

自分は一人では生きていけない。そこまで強い人間ではない。
このNYでたくさんの人に支えられて、
Ordinary? Legendary? それは自分じゃなくて相手が決めること。

さよならを言うつもりはない。また会える日が来るから
心の底からありがとうを言いたい。
