2009

I attend an exhibition “City Circus” as a guest artist. This exhibition was held by Precise Monkey.

Title: The Troubadour
Size: 297mmx420mm (A3 Port) + Frame
Technique: Mix media
Inspiration: The troubadour is about freedom. To settle in a city, you have to deal with many changes (culture, people) and that might have changed who you were. To me, one should keep the troubadour’s spirit no matter he doesn’t travel anymore.

At the end of 2009, I attend the Ploy Saeng 5 event at Thai Art and Culture Center to run a booth to sell CHOCOLATE.

Original model are made with Super Sculpey. Then I made silicone molds.

Chocolate were cooked by Mr. Golf (Chocolatier).

He created five tastes for each character.

プロイサーン vol.5
タイのデザインセンターTCDCが主催するイベント「プロイサーン」（意味はウルトラマンが発するレーザービームのようなものと教えられました。いわゆる発射するエネルギーみたいなことでしょうか。）
今回のテーマは「ビジネスと音楽」
音楽に関わる人がいったいどのようにして成功を収めて来たかを、業界の様々な職種の人を招いてディスカッションするようです。また、他の音楽イベントと同様にライブパフォーマンスなどもあるそうです。

イラストレーションは、椅子取りゲームをモチーフに音楽の楽しさと同時に生き残りの難しさを表現しています。日本の浮世絵を参考にレイアウトを組みました。

Ploy Saeng vol.5
“Business of Music”

I used the musical chairs as a metaphor for “the joy of music” and “the difficulty of survival”.

I tried to draw book covers for four literary masterpieces. This style of drawing should suit for Junior…haha. Then those books suit for students? emmmm… I have to study about book cover more…
装画に挑戦しました。こうして見るとこのスタイルは若年層（中学生とか）向けかなぁと。。。で、この本は中学生向けかどうかは疑問。。。もっと勉強が必要です。
