The purpose of this piece is to explore the relationship between Japanese pop culture and daily Japanese life. I wanted to do this in a way that wouldn’t be entirely serious, so the product includes a giant robot, a mecha, which is popular with adults and children across the country. I wanted the comparison to be heightened by using photography and digital drawing. In part I wanted to show the differences between regular, mundane living, versus the extravagant subjects that are popular in media.
