A Godzilla-like baby monster at the top of the iron tower is roaring. At the bottom of the tower, another one is looking up and roaring. The artist drew this employing a special effect, wondering what it would be like if we could eliminate problems caused by nuclear power plants by reviving Godzilla born from a hydrogen-bomb. However this is not the artist’s personal conviction, but just a small thought that it may be nice if this kind of thing happens. Love is given to contradictions arising from it, special effects, and incidents that occurred at the tower. < From the iron tower with love > Oil, pen on wood panel 162.1x162.1cm

< Only if fighting cocks did not cry > Oil, pen on wood panel 80.0x116.0cm Two giant fighting cocks descend on a housing complex similar to the one where the artist grew up, as a motif. This housing complex, a tiny piece of Tokyo that he knows and no longer exists, is far different from the glamorous Tokyo that everybody has in their minds. This is his first attempt at a “Tokyo Complex” (what the artist wants to call it) series to reflect the sad reality and a sense of loss of his home.
