Received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. He works primarily in the United States and Japan, creating paintings using unique algorithms, based on the theme of “the essence of art.” For Minami, philosophy, history, geometry, mathematics, and music are all inseparable, and he extracts elements that symbolize the “core of art” from diverse fields and cultures, incorporates them into algorithms, and expresses them as paintings. His major solo exhibitions include “ALGORITHM” (Seibu Shibuya Art Gallery, Tokyo, 2024) and “THE CORE OF PAINTING, THE ORIGIN OF THOUGHT” (BUM Gallery, Korea, 2023). His works are included in the collections of the Kyocera Museum of Art, Kyoto and the Gunma Prefectural Museum of Art.
