About The Artwork
This oil painting is painted on a photograph of a pile of scallop shells which was taken by the artist when she was taking a bicycle trip in Hiranai, Aomori Prefecture, Japan. The amount of scallop shells reminded the artist of "The Birth of Venus", the Renaissance masterpiece by Botticelli. However, in this painting, the head of Venus is converted into the head of the clay figure that was excavated in the prefecture, to express the commonality of the fundamental figure of life beyond cultures.
