Info
Title: Wasshoi Aliens go to Takachiho
Technique: Oil on canvas
Size: 91x91cm
Wasshoi Seijin is going to see his favorite night festival in Takachiho.
In the night festival, each village invites the local deity and dedicates 33 performances of Kagura over the course of the night. This ritual has been passed down from generation to generation.
Each village wears a kagura mask that has been handed down from generation to generation.
I painted this picture to show how sacred it is, as well as the wishes and enjoyment of the people of the satoyama.
Energy is also emitted from the mountain toward the sky.
