When I first encountered this spectacle, I was taken aback by its breathtaking beauty.
I visited the place many times to see such a scene again.
As I continued to visit, I encountered a situation where some of the sand crests had collapsed, making it impossible to see over the vast expanse of sand crests.
I realized that the sight that I had taken for granted was no longer the norm.

As a means for happiness to be shared by all, accepting individual differences is necessary.
Therefore, through my work, I express these "differences" through my works.
