OIL ON CANVAS,2024
A girl wearing mules that are larger than her feet.
The shoes worn by adult women are a symbol of a girl's longing for growth and a future that is yet to be reached.
A disproportionately sized mule contains instability and unease at the same time as the expectation that one will stretch out.
I had my own experience of secretly wearing my mother's high heels when I was a child.
However, what the work shows is not a story about how if you grow up, you can become the ideal “adult” you envision.
I feel that even as I get older, I still can't reach the adult form I once admired.
Also, there is a reality that many adults live their daily lives while “pretending to be adults.”
The cherry blossoms scattered on the deep blue dress reminiscent of lapis lazuli are the changing seasons and the passage of time itself.
It projected us living in the present as “adults” while fluctuating between ideals and reality.
This work was exhibited at the exhibition “Nakameguro Sakura Exhibition vol.9” held at MDP Gallery in 2024/3.

Born in Nagasaki. Graduated from Joshibi University of Art and Design. Activities began at The Shanghai Art Fair in the same year. Contradictory events and feelings that humans have, such as life and death, love and hate, are incorporated into the work, and the truth that is born beyond that is pursued. Born in Nagasaki. After graduating from Joshibi University of Art and Design, majoring in Western painting, he began working at The Shanghai Art Fair. Her older sister's death, which she experienced as a child, and peace education that was actively carried out in Nagasaki, where the atomic bomb was dropped, she intensely inquired about “life” and “death.” In 2017, as an artist born in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the work “Claudia,” which depicts a girl hiding her face with the symbol mark of a nuclear weapon, was added to the Benetton Foundation's collection. Contradictory events and feelings that humans have, such as life and death, love and hate, are incorporated into the work, and the truth that is born beyond that is pursued. Representative works include pictures of an emotionless girl with her face and clothes painted over, and pictures of skulls and plants representing substances that have lost their lives and those living in the present.
