This piece reimagines the traditional Japanese Benkei pattern with bold black and gold lines. Lines crisscross like stitches, weaving together culture and time— connecting past memories with present-day sensibilities. Before diving in, the artist spent some quiet time face-to-face with the tanuki, waiting for its true shape to reveal itself. Through upcycling, its story doesn’t end—it just changes outfits and keeps on going. May this piece quietly weave its way into the hearts of those who see it, becoming something that lingers and resonates from within.
