In the two-dimensional composition painting, the silhouettes of multiple people lying down, bar code, traditional Japanese colorful kimonos and things like hangers for hanging kimonos are randomly drawn. And the blue and white background has a wave-like pattern and is like an iceberg. At first glance, a painting that gives the impression of being cute. However, this artwork concept was discussed based on feminism, sexism and ethnicity against Asian women.
