1988年愛知生まれ、東京在住のアーティスト/写真家。
写真メディアや、人・マシンの認識システムの根源に立ち戻りながら、「人がものを見る経験」を通して社会の実相を再認識する作風が特徴。
一般システム理論の研究をきっかけに様々なパターン構造に関心を持ち、心理学・感染症予防・金融・ITの領域を横断した後に写真表現を始めた。一貫して社会的なイシューに関心を持ち、初期は被災地や政情不安定国などでのフォトジャーナリズム、人形やロボットなどの人工物と関係を結ぶ人々を捉えるドキュメンタリー領域で活動した。近年は先端テクノロジーに主眼をおき、日常的に誰でも使えるソフトウェアを取り入れ、時に意図的に誤った使い方をしながらその性質を暴露する。
