Work Details

This work is part of a series created for the 2021 group exhibition "What Would I Do in That Situation?: The Drawers of Printmaking" (Geidai Art Plaza, Tokyo).

The series unfolds within the setting of a fictional beach resort, where its own narrative gradually emerges.

This particular work depicts a young bellboy employed at the resort's hotel.

A raw egg cannot be cut with a knife. The work uses this impossible act as an allegory for the boy's frustration and immaturity.
