The titles Fun-fun (芬芬) and Fang-fang (芳芳) evoke an overwhelming, exquisite fragrance filling the entire space.Here, the boundaryless vortex of swirling Eastern and Western petals symbolizes the multicultural fusion at the heart of Yoriko Youda’s aesthetic. The sanctuary of the Shishikoma (guardian beast) is not a place of exclusion, but a tolerant, fertile utopia where diverse cultures, eras, and values harmoniously coexist.Through the meticulous layering of transparent watercolors and pigments on traditional washi paper, the profound depth of this multilayered world is masterfully brought into physical reality.
