One day, a female painter realized that she couldn't come up with any other themes to paint except for her lover. She isolated herself in her world of art, trying to distance herself from her lover in order to paint something else. However, her lover continued to provide her with warmth and concern. Eventually, she painted a beautiful piece to commemorate the most beautiful thing in the world - love. To better convey the story, I designed the artwork in different styles. I used a Japanese animation style to represent the real world, and hand-painted watercolor and oil painting styles to represent the world in the painting.

At the art and lifestyle festival “Tokyosaï 2024,” held in France in February 2024, we created the augmented reality work “Ukiyo.e AR” in collaboration with “Tokyo Tokyo,” an initiative by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government that promotes the appeal of Tokyo both in Japan and abroad. Eight AR animations were installed throughout the venue, drawing on Utagawa Hiroshige’s “One Hundred Famous Views of Edo” while reimagining contemporary Tokyo as original pixel art. Among the game participants who found all of these AR experiences and shared them on Instagram Stories, a lottery was held and airline tickets to Tokyo were awarded as a prize.
