This is an object by Takuma Tanaka. Human Sushi: A series satirizing the interaction between predator and prey. In this world, humans are eaten as sushi. Sushi restaurants are very popular in Japan. However, in the works depicted here, humans who have been made into sushi are shown on plates. Humanity has considered itself the king of all existence, dominating the world. However, in this modern society, we face many problems. We have lost control, just like a conveyor belt sushi restaurant. Through this motif, the cruelty of anthropocentrism is paradoxically revealed. Stored as is after purchase. Born in Edogawa-ku, Tokyo in 1977. Spent his childhood in Koshigaya, Saitama Prefecture. Attended Saitama Prefectural Urawa High School. Entered Chiba University but dropped out. Entered the Faculty of Law at Waseda University. Aiming to become a lawyer, he failed the bar exam twice and fell ill, starting to paint for rehabilitation. Influenced by street performer Peter Frankl, he began selling paintings on the streets of Urawa. His works were highly praised for their affordable price of 1,000 yen per piece and pop style, and he sold many works. He also started selling on the streets in Ginza. Sales plummeted after the Lehman Shock. Seeking a new frontier, he went to Shanghai. At the major Shanghai gallery, Jie Art, he was favored by the owner, who had studied in Japan, and obtained the right to hold a solo exhibition. He was the first Japanese artist to hold a solo exhibition at the gallery. His works are also handled by PIEROGI GALLERY in Brooklyn. In 2015, he held a solo exhibition at the New York NPO organization, Chasama. In 2018, his painting "Blue Rose" was acquired by the Ulster Museum in Northern Ireland. His works were recognized by Robert Duponttwin, who had contact with Andy Warhol and Salvador Dalí during their lifetimes, and he signed an agent contract.
