Chichi tanaka drew the main visual again this year.
The title of the film is “People Waiting in the Tree.
We asked him about his thoughts on this painting.
Continuing from the year before and last year, I am drawing a scene in the forest. This year’s work is titled “People Waiting in Trees”. My perception of Corona, which had been the object of my fear, has gradually changed. The number of people coming and going from Japan and abroad has gradually increased, and I have developed a different feeling from the stagnation I have felt for the past few years. However, I feel that there is still an atmosphere of having to suppress the emotions of happiness and fun. I wondered if the people in the painting had been climbing up trees to see what was going on here for a long time, or if they had climbed up trees under these circumstances, and I drew it in the hope that it would be something that would allow the people who saw the painting to project their own thoughts.
