His solo exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo, which centered on his theme of "the power of imagination" stemming from issues such as 3.11 and sns, attracted a great deal of attention as he was the youngest artist in the museum's history and the first Heisei-born artist to hold a solo exhibition, which has previously featured works by Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, and Yoko Ono.
