Created this month, Hakama No. 6 marks a significant return to the series a decade after its origin in 2016. The work feels both mature and renewed — a continuation shaped by time.
The figure stands with her back to the viewer against a striking striped linen backdrop: wide alternating bands of deep black and natural flax tones, illuminated by window light. The structured geometry of the fabric contrasts with the softness of the body.
Light falls across her back, sculpting warm shadows and cool highlights. She embraces herself gently — one hand resting at her waist, the other touching her neck — a gesture of intimacy and self-acceptance. The long black skirt grounds the composition, while her posture remains steady and assured.
Though turned away, she subtly opens herself to the warmth of the light. The painting speaks of tenderness toward oneself, of standing calmly within one’s own strength. The atmosphere carries a quiet golden radiance — like suspended dust in sunlight — conveying reassurance, serenity, and the feeling that everything is, and will be, as it should be.
The work balances structure and softness, confidence and vulnerability, forming a luminous statement of feminine presence.
