This landscape is inspired from bullet train rides in the Japanese countryside and passing abandoned and faded Jizo statues. The piece was created with the intent of creating a peaceful, comforting storybook forest scene with jizo statues but is disrupted by the black ghosts flying in between the trees. Much like the bullet train in the country side, the image reflects the discourse between serenity and productivity.
