Young Japanese artist Ai Shinohara his creativity at the same time frightens and pleases, touches and terrifies. Her paintings evoke an explosive mixture of emotions that can excite even the most calm and balanced person. It would seem, where is the reason for excitement, because in each picture we see adorable girls, beautiful flora and fauna. But looking closely, you realize that adorable girls surrounded by beautiful flowers are not so simple, and that all this is fraught with a deep author's philosophy. Ai Shinohara is a professional artist. She graduated from the University of the Arts in Tokyo in 2007, has frequently exhibited in contemporary art galleries, and once her work was part of an extensive exhibition at the Mehr Gallery in New York.
In the painting of the young artist, a recently fashionable theme is clearly traced, mercilessly exploited by contemporary artists, sculptors and installation masters - the inextricable connection between man and nature, their dependence on each other, their friendship, war, love and hatred. True, Ai Shinohara very peculiarly transfers this theme to the canvas, painting an inextricable connection as literally as one can imagine. So, flowers and other plants sprout through the bodies of cute little girls, fish and animals gnaw into their delicate white flesh, and in the end, the girls also gradually turn into fish, changing their legs to tail and scales. Blood spills on the grass, internal organs can be seen here and there from gaping wounds, and all this against the backdrop of fresh greenery and fragrant flowers, as if the action unfolds in one of Tokyo's lush parks or squares.
You can see the entire collection of dead girls in the bosom of nature and other creepy-cute paintings by the young artist on her website.
