Disturbing reality

Artist: Aida Makoto

 

Aida's work combines the style of bijinga (portraits of beautiful women), war paintings and bonsai, with manga, anime and nudes of young girls to address issues that are politically and ethically controversial.In this particular artwork, Aida exposes the inherent sickness of the Japanese metality such as partiality for anime and two-dimensional images of pretty girls, as well as self-mutilation using pop and colourful methods.
