PAC CAT is a multidisciplinary artist based in Tokyo, whose work blends visual art, sculpture, and music, creating a unique space for conceptual exploration. His artistic journey took a pivotal turn in April 2020, when the world was gripped by the unprecedented challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. Living in Tokyo under stringent lockdown measures, PAC CAT found himself in an unfamiliar and isolating environment.
Struggling with the mental and emotional weight of the situation, he sought an outlet to express his inner turmoil. One day, in a moment of spontaneous creativity, he began drawing on wooden boards that had been lying untouched in a garage. This intuitive act of expression marked the beginning of a new artistic chapter for him, one that would explore the intersection of materiality, symbolism, and personal experience.
Driven by a desire to give form to his emotions, PAC CAT experimented with a wide range of materials and techniques, crafting works that were rich in metaphor and conceptual meaning. His art quickly evolved from two-dimensional pieces to more complex three-dimensional works, such as intricately designed headpieces. His ability to fuse diverse mediums with deep, personal expression has earned him recognition in both group and solo exhibitions, where his works have sparked conversation and intrigue.
In addition to his visual art practice, PAC CAT has also pursued a career in music. His musical compositions, which sometimes accompany his visual works, further enrich the immersive experiences he creates. His multidisciplinary approach allows him to explore the nuances of human emotion, the interplay between different art forms, and the ever-evolving relationship between society and the individual.
