Artistic expressions⇨
Hana YAGYU expresses the influence of the Japanese native religion, Shinto, and the Japanese traditional mindset, Wabi-Sabi. Like people worship nature in Shinto practice, she worships “Imperfection of Humans” through her artworks.

Composition ⇨
As she is influenced by the fractal structure, her artwork features images like branched structures and animals and plants. Also, she depicts the interactions of unconscious domains. "Draw something that can be drawn only by humans" - Yagyu

Colours ⇨
She compares the colours to the role of the whole creation.
She believes, “There is no such thing as a beautiful colour or a dirty colour, but everything is intrinsically beautiful. Thus, it is just a matter of arrangement.”

She confronts the audience; “What is beautiful and ugly is decided by humans. As long as you are biased, you cannot fully affirm your life, the vivid and raw act of living. The question is what is true self-affirmation?”
