“I Loved My Friend” Tokyo, 2023
Commission artwork
Size: A5
Goat parchment
24kt gold
Gouache painting Late-Gothic style
This is medieval-style illuminated manuscripts depicting the theme of “friendship”, featuring the client, her best friend, and their Akita dogs. When these diptych artworks are displayed together, they resemble the pages of an open medieval book, with a right page and a left page. The client and her friend each own one piece of this diptych artwork. I hope that this artwork will preserve the memories of their friendship for a long time.
