The tree that has always been there and will always be there

A work exhibited at Shinichi Wakasa's exhibition "Kiso Tenkai." Wakasa uses natural art materials that have been used since ancient times in Japan, such as glue and lacquer, to paint traditional Japanese motifs that have been painted for hundreds of years with a modern sensibility, discovering beauty in the invisible realm and creating a utopian worldview in which demons and monsters coexist.
