About Save Calendar カレンダーイラストレーション

「Save Calendar」は、食べ物を大切にすることをテーマにしたカレンダーのために制作された一連のイラストレーションです。春・夏・秋・冬の四季を通した農場の田畑の情景を描いています。季節ごとに色彩が移り変わるため、四つの時期を一目で見分けることができます。中国的な様式によるシンメトリーの構図が、画面にモダンな印象を与えています。月と季節の情報は各シートの上部に配置されています。作画はコンピューターソフトウェアで行い、800×800ミリメートルのサイズで印刷されました。本シリーズは農家の労苦を描き出し、食べ物を大切にすることの意味を人々に思い起こさせます。
