About the work
(When Mizuhodori paints, he starts without deciding on anything specific. I try to stop thinking and savor the sensation of the moment when I paint. After the painting is completed, I try to put what I feel from the painting in writing as an aspect of the work.)
These beings are watching you from somewhere.
They are brightly colored and shine with their own colors.
In fact, they are not clearly separate entities, but rather loosely fused or slightly separated, with a fluctuating connection.
Even if they are not consciously aware of it, they are connected in the realm of the unconscious.
Even living things with bodies are born and die, eat and be eaten, evolve and degenerate, grow and age, change shape and form, and somewhere along the way, merge and separate from something else.
What you feel from this picture is different for each person at different times, but at least it gives something positive to the viewer.
Some people feel courageous, some feel energized, and some feel nostalgic.
◆About the technique
While I was painting, it occurred to me that I wanted to use the beauty of the layers of transparent acrylic paint.
I especially like the eyes and the circles.
I think it looks like the color of layered colored cellophane.
