■Concept
This is the Hatsune Miku version of the work "Portrait of dazzle" which I have been creating since 2020. The "Portrait of dazzle" series is a "portrait of modern people" that expresses the anonymity and unreliability of information on the internet by accurately tracing only the "eyes" from selfies uploaded to the internet and social media, and redrawing the outline of the portrait with completely different human characteristics such as race, gender, hairstyle, and body shape of the actual person modeled. When I was offered this collaboration, I felt an affinity between my work and the characteristic of Hatsune Miku, a virtual singer who does not physically exist, whose "insider (creator) changes," and so I created a new "Portrait of dazzle" for the Hatsune Miku version, incorporating symbolic colors and iconic twin tails.
