    Description

    Japan’s traditional bento are a perfected form of food that has gained worldwide popularity in recent years. This is not only because of their visual and formal esthetic elements.
    These bento, each a small box into which much food has been ingeniously made to fit, show a very close to the modern ideology of “living with as little as possible”—that is, the minimalist lifestyle.
    This series is an attempt to thoroughly investigate the minimalism of bento. The artist cooked, prepared, and then ate bento himself. The illustrations trace and compress the flow of the series of these events. This process goes beyond the simple concept of bento to offer a minimalist way of living.

  • About this artist

    Concept

    I create art works that focus on the concept of food, based on my experience of studying at a culinary school and obtaining a cooking license following my graduation from a university of the arts. I experiment with familiar, everyday food like noodles and cake to critically portray modern life and social issues in simple, and cynical fashion.
