This painting was inspired by a small spider spinning a web between two trees in the artist’s garden.

The artist creates original paintings not influenced by techniques or trends called art brut, or raw art. As you look at this artwork, consider what the territory shown represents.

In terms of the territory of Sado, there was once a dispute between neighboring villages over fishing rights. This led to a defining of the area as their territory, and a tragic event occurred when someone invaded it to fish. This historical event reflects the complex and often fraught nature of territorial disputes among people.
