日本画家・諫山宝樹が描く無邪気な「唐子（からこ）」と、ポップアーティスト・Omochiが描くキュートな「ハートの目の女の子」。GNEのクリエイティブチームも企画から参画し、この二つの万国共通の「かわいい」をマッシュアップするという、唯一無二の作品作りに挑戦しました。表現手法としてたどり着いたのが、ネオンアート。静と動、伝統と革新が衝突し、融合する瞬間に生まれる特有の煌めき。本作は、その光景を「ネオンアート」で表現することで、時代もジャンルも飛び越えた新たな表現の可能性を追求する、一つの試みです。
The innocent “Karako” (Chinese children) painted by Japanese-style painter Tamaju Isayama, and the cute “girl with heart-shaped eyes” drawn by pop artist Omochi. The GNE creative team participated from the planning stages, taking on the challenge of creating a one-of-a-kind artwork by “mashing up” these two universally “kawaii” (cute) motifs. The method of expression they arrived at was the concept of Neon Art. It is the unique sparkle born in the moment when stillness and motion, tradition and innovation, collide and merge. This work is an attempt to pursue the possibilities of new expression that transcends eras and genres by representing that scene as “Neon Art.”
