ARTIST
Mizù creates the design following the title of the work with combining international maritime signal flags. Flag series puts him in the limelight in 1980's. Spends his time in Italy, France and Spain and exhibits the works across the borders of countries. Receives special prize at the First Representational Art Concours in Anzio and installs stained glass at St. Anna Church in Lavino, Rome in 1987. He is invited to the multiple exhibitions including Chagall, Dali, Picasso, Melois and Mizù (Barcelona, Spain) in 1989 and the joint exhibition with Dali (Beaune, France) in 1990: it shows how high he has been acclaimed in Europe. Although his matte and full-brimmed texture divided by extra-fine lines represent the modern abstract, it is sometimes drawn an affinity with Ukiyo-e. His works are introduced at the art fairs such as Art Basel (Basel, Switzerland), FIAC (Paris, France), Art Rio (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) and more.
