[Shinjuku Isetan]Actress Natsu Matsumiya holds a solo exhibition as artist ETE PIN. “Natsu no Kanojo’s Bon Voyage! Exhibition” May 1st (Wednesday) to May 7th (Tuesday), 2024

Crocodile goes on a journey suspended from a blue balloon to find a world where he can live happily.

The more you continue on your journey, the more the earthly world you have lived in will become further away.

Even with balloons, you never know if they might burst someday.

The higher the crocodile flies, the more the crocodile’s heart swells with hopes and fears.

But even more than that, Crocodile’s life becomes brighter as he encounters unexpected and heart-pounding new worlds.

In contrast, sloths hide in trees on the ground and live quietly so that they can live a peaceful and peaceful life without being attacked by anyone.

However, the sloth always accepts the crocodile and continues to wait with a big heart.

I respect and even admire the crocodile for its solitary and brave journey.

In addition, the crocodile’s heart is supported by the existence of such a sloth.

I draw these crocodiles and sloths as if I were drawing a page from a picture book.

When I’m drawing a work, there are times when the crocodile and sloth seem to be my two personalities, me and someone else, or someone and someone else.

I hope that when you watch this work, you can imagine the story of the crocodiles, feel a little lighter, and feel kind and calm.
