Profile
ERI HIRACHI


Born and raised in 1983 in Kawachinagano, Osaka.
After graduating from junior high school, I enrolled in a fashion vocational high school but dropped out due to various circumstances. After leaving school, I worked in various fields, including automobile body repair, bakery work, and electronic component manufacturing.
In 2016, I met Katsu Ishida at SYSTEMA GALLERY, which led me to start working as an electronic craft sphere photographer and electrical sculptor, actively creating both domestically and internationally.

How I got into the art world?

I am an Electronic Sphere Photographer, but I used to dislike both photography and electronics.

My father loved cameras and taking photos. Most of my memories of him involve him constantly taking pictures. Watching him, I felt embarrassed. I hated both being photographed and taking pictures.

Ironically, before I knew it, I had started taking photos myself. At first, they were just poorly taken snapshots.

I visited a gallery because an acquaintance was exhibiting in a group show. There, I met Katsushi Ishida. He said to me, “If you’re taking photos, then create something.” That was the moment my creative journey began.

Later, I was diagnosed with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). It was difficult for me to accept, and I struggled a lot.

Despite this, I worked various jobs while pursuing my art as a side career. I thought I was stress-resistant, but my health gradually declined. Eventually, I developed depression and resigned from my job in January 2025.

About my art work

The main themes of my work are connections, the world as I see it, vessels and souls, light and sound, and spheres.

I used to shoot with a DSLR camera, but I often felt that what I captured was different from what I actually saw. This made me sad, so I eventually gave up on using a DSLR.

Among all the cameras I tried, a 360-degree camera was the closest to how I perceive the world. I combined its unique visual perspective with my admiration for sound, my self-taught knowledge of electronics, sculpting techniques, photography skills, and transfer printing methods. By connecting these elements, I refined and elevated them into what my work is today.

There is something else I recently started—I actually always wanted to be a musician.

I took Electone lessons for over ten years, but I never improved. No matter what instrument I practiced for years, I couldn’t get any better. I can’t sing well, and I have no sense of rhythm.

However, I always liked writing lyrics. In a way, my lyrics are like a collection of meaningless diary entries that have piled up over time. I wanted to organize them and find a way to express them, so in late January 2025, I finally turned to AI-generated music.

I write the lyrics, while AI composes and sings the songs. I started this project under the name Erii05 (Eri Zero Five) in January 2025.
