This work was created for an exhibition named after Maurice Utrillo, and the first thing I cited was,
It was the relationship between Utrillo and his mother.
In general, Suzanne, Utrillo's mother, was a very bad influence on Utrillo, but it was also his mother who helped Utrillo develop his talent.
Perhaps there was more to the story than has been told. Perhaps my mother Suzanne Valadon at least had a desire to be a motherly mother.
God only knows if there was another side to the two of them, or if it was Utrillo's hope in the next life, or if it was his reincarnated form.
I would like to leave that to the imagination of the viewer.
ユトリロとその母の関係性を別の角度から見つめた作品として、隠れた家族の絆や情緒を描いた作品です。ユトリロと母親の間には、愛情や苦悩、理解といった様々な要素が絡み合っています。この作品は、観る者に家族という絆の尊さや複雑さを考えさせると同時に、ユトリロや母親の真の人間性を深く理解するきっかけとなるでしょう。ユトリロのストーリーを通じて、新たな気づきを与えてくれる作品となっています。芸術賞受賞。
I have avoided direct expression and expressed it poetically by using various white tones over several levels, contrasting colors and shapes, and by using a cat as a pseudo-expression.
