Of course, I also used ZBrush for the work I exhibited in Paris. However, when I found out that most of the works I was interested in (mainly animals and creatures) were made with ZBrush, I immediately bought ZBrush and my sculpting career started from there. At that time, there were only a handful of ZBrush artists in Japan. The first time I used ZBrush was 10 years ago, when I was still in my first year of college. How long have you been using ZBrush? Was it used for your Louvre piece? If so, how did it benefit you in your creation process? I am glad that I could have this opportunity to exhibit piece from digital at the Louvre as a genre of visual art, which is different from contemporary art and craft art. But this time, I was able to show that there is an option for artists to use digital art to develop their works in the real art market. However, they are still in the minority in the art market and have not been appreciated by traditional artists who place importance on materials and traditional methods. Nowadays, many artists, including famous Japanese artists such as Takashi Murakami and Kohei Nawa, are using ZBrush and 3D printing to create their artworks. When I first started my art career, the Louvre was a “destination far away,” so I didn’t expect to be able to exhibit my work there so soon. During that time, I had exhibited at galleries and art fairs in New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, so it was not my first time exhibiting overseas. Two or three months later, the work was completed and shipped to Paris. I immediately replied, “Of course, I will participate,” and began to work on the piece. It was from an organization involved in the art fair. How did it come to be featured at the Louvre? How did you find out, what does this accomplishment mean for you at this point in your career?Ībout a year and a half after I started my career as a sculpture artist, I received an email.
