About the artwork
Into the peaceful scene of a smiling family of three, I introduced a magical girl riding an insect.
When she casts her magic, the family’s bodies are overtaken by pop colors and patterns. Their faces and limbs stretch and intertwine until the three bodies form a single enormous vortex, transforming them into a literally inseparable grotesque entity.
The family itself becomes something beyond individual bodies: a single event. I depicted that process as a colorful and bizarre transformation.
I have always been obsessed with laughter, having written countless scripts for sketches and manzaicomedy—not as a performer, but as a writer. The performers would take my scripts and elevate them, interpreting them in ways that made the laughter shine brighter.
Yet within me grew a desire to pursue something sharper, stranger—laughter so radical it might no longer even be laughter at all. Perhaps no one else would laugh, but it would be mine alone.
This vision could not be expressed through words, nor could it be performed by someone else. It belonged entirely to the realm of imagination—unrealizable, until now. In my restless search, the times gifted me with a remarkable technology. AI appeared before me as a new kind of performer.
