(French) Né en 1979, j'ai commencé à étudier la peinture sur le tard après avoir travaillé à temps partiel dans divers endroits. Quand j'étais jeune, on me disait souvent que j'étais distrait. Mais au fil du temps, je me suis rendu compte que la taille de mon imagination me distrayait. Maintenant, je veux vieillir en partageant cette imagination avec les gens qui m'entourent. Il existe des livres d'images "Chiot noir", "Boîte de cuisine", "Attrapez le voleur", "Nolja", "Poisson enrhumé" et "Jjakgoong", qui sont écrits et peints sous forme de poèmes. Il a écrit l'histoire de "Monsieur To, Monsieur Géo" et a peint "La mère qui fume" et "Le prince des narines".
(Vietnamese) Khi còn nhỏ đã nghe nhiều lời phàn nàn rằng hay nhãng trí. Vì vậy, tôi đã cho rằng mình như thế và sống đến giờ. Nhưng thời gian trôi qua, tôi nhìn lại và nhận ra rằng chính kích thước của trí tưởng tượng của mình đang làm mất tập trung. Bây giờ tôi muốn già đi bằng cách chia sẻ một cách vui vẻ trí tưởng tượng đó với mọi người xung quanh.Vì tôi thích kết hợp sách tranh với nghệ thuật đa dạng nên tôi thích thiết kế các board game cùng sách tranh, đồng thời viết và sáng tác nhạc.
(Japanese) 幼い時、散漫だという話をよく聞いた。だからそうだと思いながら生きてきた。しかし、時間が流れ振り返ってみたら、想像力の大きさが散漫であると気が付いた。今はその想像力を周りの人たちと楽しく分け合って年を取りたい。様々な芸術と絵本をつなぎ合わせることが好きで、絵本と一緒にボードゲームデザイン、童詩書き、作曲作業を楽しくしている。
