[About the work]
The Japanese fairies
The soul of anime continues to be born in a different form.
"Chao" is a blue cat with a pink ribbon
Apollinaria possesses Japanese animated characters, like Itako, who contacts the spirit world and possesses the dead. Cute, dark, light and heavy. When we open our mouths, we feel like we are likely to say something serious and decisive, and we are drawn into the charm, but we are unable to feel at ease. A collection of works that maximize the ambiguity of the soul, which combines strength and vulnerability, dreams and reality, past and future, one and the world, and "cute." The anime never ends. It will continue to be reborn and remodeled in a different shape.
