OIL ON CANVAS. In Welcome To Paradise, a classic oil painting is interrupted by the quiet imposition of modern retail. Rolling hills and romantic skies now give way to the clean, geometric bulk of an IKEA blue box store, its familiar facade nestled incongruously into scenes of pastoral bliss.
As the landscapes remain serene, the intrusion feels almost natural, questioning how seamlessly modern commerce has integrated into the spaces we once considered sacred. Personal project in Tokyo, Japan - 2025.
