Featured Work

This project was inspired by a famous Japanese miniature artist “Tanaka Tatsuya.” He makes miniature art every day and it’s really interesting to see how he plays with all kinds of materials with no limitations. One day, I had bunches of broccoli in the refrigerator which I don’t eat and I wanted to make this broccoli delicious so I can have an interest in this vegetable. So I decided to make broccoli look as fresh as possible in a variety of ways and my goal was to raise the vitality of the broccoli. To add the vividness of the broccoli, I personified broccoli in my work.
