Group Exhibition "GINZA Zoo”

2023

2023/2/10(金)~17(金)A work painted for a group exhibition at ASAGI ARTS.Since the exhibition was held at a gallery in Ginza, I put "GINZA" in the title.Participating members were Inunko, Ayumi Shimoda, Kyoko Tange, Michiko Furutani, and myself.

  • GINZA ZOO" - Typical Ginza sweets are made into a zoo by using them as animals.
  • ”I chose bright colors that would bring good things” The famous lion in front of a famous department store. When you see it in person, it is very plain, so we decided to use a color like this.
  • ”go back to one's hometown” A lion, usually found in front of a famous department store, is returning home.
  • ”3 o'clock snack” The "3 o'clock snack is a Bunmeido" commercial is familiar only to people of my generation and older. But the character of the white bear is still alive and well.
  • ”relationship with one's neighbors” Kyukyodo's pigeon, Bunmeido's white bear, BVLGARI's snake
  • ”A cat in a forest that looks like that famous wrapping paper pattern.”I did not know Mr. Inokuma until I became an adult and started painting.When I learned that Mr. Inokuma designed the wrapping paper for Mitsukoshi, it suddenly looked wonderful.When I looked at it again closely, it looked like a forest, so I painted this picture.
  • ”Elephant” I made this regardless of Ginza.
  • ”blue dog” I made this regardless of Ginza.
