五果を主題に描いた5点の連作の2点目です。それぞれの作品に五果の花と、陰陽五行の五神獣を描きました。2018年に大阪のSUNABAギャラリーさまで開催されたグループ展「花のいろは」に初出展した後、全5点に加筆修正を加えました。
This is the second one of the five paintings on flowers of the five fruits which are related to Wu Xing (The Five Elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water). Each of them includes the flowers of the fruit and the mythological creature of Wu Xing. I reworked the five paintings after they were first exhibited at a group exhibition of Sunaba Gallery (Osaka, Japan) in 2018.
