Iwai Medeta - Happy Celebration by haku.mokuren_46_ - Japan (h-29.7cm x w-21cm)

Artist Profile : Grounded in the ancient belief of "kotodama," or he spiritual power inherent in words, Japanese culture holds that words possess the ability to shape reality. Inspired by this concept, I create AI-generated artwork paired with classic Japanese poetry, infusing each piece with the spiritual essence of language.

Artwork Introduction : Iwai Medeta," a spirited song from Fukuoka, is traditionally sung at festive occasions. Inspired by the resilient "Hakata Goryon-san," a woman who plays a vital role behind the scenes at the Hakata Gion Yamakasa festival, my artwork captures her strength and the promise of prosperity symbolized by an open fan.
