Koharuti
Self-renewal
In exploring the emotional side of illustrations for children, Koharutie transgresses the codes of a genre to create a new one: the Emo-Pop Art, or, the art of giving shape to our anxieties through images normally used to express other emotions. In combining a fecund naiveté with fierce introspection, these pieces together create a reflection of the paradoxes of our generation; namely, if innocence is nothing but a dream, then perhaps suffering is the harbinger of our redemption?
