An acrylic painting on wood panel, titled 'Hana-bi', of two surreal figures at the beach. In the distance a figure with a flower as its head sits in a wheelchair close to the water. The other sits on a piece of driftwood with a roman candle exploding in an kaleidoscope effect.

HANA-BI

(1997, 北野 武)

ようやく一周した気分だ。北野武の『ソナチネ』を観て、「Fireworks Girls」シリーズの絵を描き始め、今は『HANA-BI』を観ている。むしろこっちを先に描くべきだったかも？まあ、それはさておき。
