Synopsis

Kabuki Sawako is a very strange person... quite the mad one if I happen to say so myself. This piece. "◯". Is just another one of her works that make you ask "why?". Your answer is, well, how would I know what goes on in her mind?

It's funny. A circle; the perfect shape, yet it has been used in such a vulgar manner. A juxtaposition? Perhaps.

Art
Not as impressed. With art many things are happening. Humans have limited lines of focus. With color it stress what should be focused vs not. A pure black and white film loses that advantage. Also, the drawing could without a doubt been ...
