《Dress up》, 2024
When we learn of the dizzying events happening outside our homes, we feel a sense of déjà vu, like looking at a long picture scroll, and at the same time, we become aware that we are always being watched from above.
It’s like when you look into the baby monitor you installed at home for your child, it feels like a gaze of compassion directed at the entire space, or it feels like you’re being watched over by the moonlight shining into the room from the window. Brings a sense of comfort.
In this work, the entire painting is illuminated by bluish moonlight as a way of imagining the story from a bird’s-eye perspective, and within that light, the inseparable relationship between the girl and the animals is depicted from a close-up perspective.
(Maiko Kasai)
