私は実像と虚像を重ね合わせる表現をよくしますが、この作品では着物の文様の蝶と左上にいるクロアゲハを重ね合わせています。きらびやかだけれども自由のないところから、厳しいけれども自由な現実の世界へ飛び立つ様子を表現しました。人物のポーズは卵もしくは種子をイメージしていて、まさに春、芽を出すように飛び立つという意もこめました。
“Although in my painting I frequently combine elements of realism with the unreal, however in this painting, I super-positioned the butterfly pattern on the woman’s kimono with the kuroageha butterfly in the upper left portion of the composition. This is intended to express flying from a world that is resplendent but confined, to a real world that is free but harsh. The position of the woman is based on an image of an egg or seed, and is meant to imply that she will spring forth like a young sprout in the spring.”
