Cuboism is a coined term of Cubo + ism, not related to Cubism. It came from the name of Masahiko Cubo.

When I started my office from the architect 's office in 2002, I began to think more about art expression. I like the world where sculpture and design were mixed by making works close to arts and crafts. Consider new types of handicrafts considering exhibitions and sales on the Internet. It leads to the art of making pieces one by one in the category of collection.

Cuboismとは Cubo + ism の造語であり、Cubismとは関係ない。Masahiko Cuboの名前からきている。

​2002年建築家の事務所から自分の事務所を始めるにあたり、よりアート表現を考えるようになった。美術工芸に近い作品を作ることにより彫刻とデザインをミックスした世界を好む。展覧会やインターネットでの販売を考慮し、新しいタイプの手工芸を考える。それはコレクションというカテゴリーの中、一つずつ作品を作り上げるアートへとつながる。
