I felt the same way in “Hibana”, as I did in last exhibition “Tsuyaga”, when the exhibition ended, as if it were the beginning, not the end.
But I was very exhausted, so I fell asleep soundly and slept through a whole day after the exhibiton.
It all started from “Tsuyaga”.
My world.
Errotic pictures, that came up in my mind during my stay in NY.
“This is it”, I thought.
Something everybody has in hi/her mind.
But, everyone is hiding it for some reason.
I wanted to draw it.
I thought everyone would want to see it.
First of all, I’ve got an inspiration from Shunga for Tsuyaga.
In Shyunga, you see man and woman, but I’ve only drawn women’s.
I fused what I sensed as being Japanese during the stay in NY and Japanese cultures to Shunga.
Fro expmple, small cherry blossoms, black color of Black board, gold, red from lips or nails and gold fish.
Japanese erros, implicit expression.
I wanted everyone to use imagination.
As an instance, what would you imagine by seeing the thumb hooked to the undershorts.
Tow and a half years past since.
After going through numerous exhibitions overseas, erotic world is what I wanted to express and draw.
“Hibana” I simply drew what I wanted to draw for.
Rainbow colored sparkling flowers, dropping liquid, ripe round fruits…
I sticked the details about lighting and decoration.
Last summer, I saw the red light district for the first time in Amsterdam.
In the spotlight of red and pink, there I saw ladies dressed in lingeries.
This time I got an inspiration from the scene.
Mysterious, but gorges, the lights that make women look the most beautiful.
see through curtains.
A light purple smoke stree in the ceiling.
Rhinestone and lame I applied to my drawings shined even more through the curtains and the smoke trees made a mysterious shadow.
Girl’s secret
How do you live the moment of a beauty?
The beauty that will wither and scatter eventually.
I have drawn many goldfishes in “Tsuyaga” and “Hibana” so far.
At first, I draw it because it resembles “Yujo”, courtesans, who,
in a limited place, they can only live with wearing red red dresses.
that was the reason.
But I noticed that.
It actually resembles me, who had been working in the entertainment business since a child.
And the goldfish, that is trapped in a glass,
was dreading of getting out to the blue sky staring from small world, to the outside of the glass one day.
My story has just begun .
I know there is no eternity.
Shadow gets bigger and bigger as it gets more spotlights.
I draw both of the shadow and the lights.
I sell the moment of beauty,
strength, ephemeral, fragility, and absurdity of women
And greatness.
Sealed such things
I hope you see in my arts.
