About Cats In The Bag Илюстрация
"Котки в торба" е серия от илюстрации в рамка, изобразяващи котки, отпочиващи вътре в торби. Всяка творба представя проста сцена от ежедневието с котка. Серията представя дългокосмести, късокосмести и безкосмести котки, съчетани с торби с различна форма. Илюстрациите са рисувани цифрово, а след това отпечатани върху акрилни плочи чрез сито печат. Няколко отпечатани плочи са наредени една върху друга в специално изработена рамка, като хартия и режещ лист са поставени отзад, така че изображението изглежда триизмерно при промяна на ъгъла на наблюдение. Всяко квадратно произведение има размери 422 на 422 милиметра.

- This project was born from the essential relationship between cats and bags in daily life. It is common to see a cat sleeping in a bag or a plastic bag in daily life with a cat, which is a posterior neck.Cats are said to have always liked small spaces, and it is said that they used to protect themselves from enemies and to rest in small spaces. For cats kept in modern houses, the bag seemed to be used as a single nest for them.Watching them resting in their bags, as if the two had been that way from the beginning. I felt that the relationship was complementary to each other.
