Where Do We Come From? Where Are We Going?

どこから来たか、どこへ行く

The title ” Where Do We Come From? Where Are We Going?

” will remind of the Paul Gauguin’s most important work “Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?” [1897].
This series has the magnificent concept how can painter face the primordial question that many masters [Caspar David Friedrich,Paul Gauguin and others] have featured it in the past and no one has found the answer or there is a no answer.
The great earthquake in 2011 made me set to work on this series to reflect on the primordial question of human.
I will keep making this series together with other series throughout my lifetime.
