This work is a work that raises the issues of modern society and lets viewers imagine the future.

A photo that makes you think about what you really need in a modern, information-filled world.

Like the world in this photo, what do you choose if there is only one?

The size difference of the Hinomaru represents Japan’s economic power in each age.

As an example I represent in Japanese economy, but you should replace the red circle with harmony or coin (money), country, peace

The last one shows the future you imagine.

please imagine.

How does the future look to you?

The paper used for printing uses Japanese paper “WASHI” made by Iwano Ichibei designated as a national treasure.
