He creates mainly black woodblock prints that search for the roots of phenomena occurring in the present in the past, and portend dark clouds hanging over the future. His woodblock prints, which incorporate a variety of motifs on a single screen, are manga-like and nonsensical, and although they are monochromatic in black, he uses a wide range of shading to experiment with a variety of expressions, and skillfully expresses risky themes through sharp lines drawn with a carving knife.
