Works
Title:"Young people" 2016.3 Digital Art Works
This is a piece that portrays a future where young people are wearing even more colorful and unique clothing than they do today.
Title: "White stick" 2016.12 Canvas Art Works1,940×1,303mm
In the context of combat, the thin and rod-like white weapons, which may appear quite meaningless, are actually a rejection of violence. Furthermore, the attire of the three individuals who might be perceived as combatants is highly fashionable, conveying a message urging the importance of culture. This is a piece of work that stands against war and violence.
Title: "Battle Commencement ＼(^o^)／ !!" 2021.11
I depicted Cup Noodles as the "battle ration" for surviving a harsh future in the next 50 years. With a futuristic touch, a high school girl of the near future lifts the noodles with a fork, causing the individual ingredients and pink-hearted steam to rise like a "magic circle" from a video game. This presentation gives the Cup Noodles a special futuristic magic, making them appear as if they are a unique form of magic or even weapons to face the challenges of the future.
