Biography

Mitsuaki TACHIBANA entered Tokyo University of Arts under the tutelage of Takeshi YOSHINO, and he studied under Takashi FUKAI at the university where he laid the foundation as a wood sculptor. As if following his teachers’ footsteps, he seeks to combine human body sculpture with abstract narrative. He creates a story for each piece and presents a mysterious world-view that evokes the passage of time or the landscape the tree has grown in.
