PIKADON: A Tale of the Big Blast
July 17 – August 12, 2024
PIKADON: A Tale of the Big Blast (1983) is a narrative picture book consisting of 10 pieces of watercolor painting, which was found in the inner part of the storage after his death in 2020. Izuka made PIKADON to dedicate it to his father who had been exposed to radiation in the 1945 atomic bombing of Nagasaki. The 10 depictions released for the first time at Nagasaki Peace Museum are stories of what his father experienced and witnessed just after the atomic bombing on August 9, 1945.

Yayoi Yokoyama believes that there is no boundary between digital and analog, aiming to complete a piece of CG art as if she were producing a painting. By superimposing the curves of a real woman’s body on the abstract curvaceous beauty unique to CG, Yokoyama reveals woman’s thoughts and doubts, past, emotions, wounds, attachments, regrets, hopes, elation, pride, etc. that women have acquired through their experiences.
