i drew this for a group show called “the christmas machine” at MFK gallery in berlin. the theme is obviously christmas. nothing more christmassy than a trout coming to town. he brought me a new set of hands.

after i drew a girl with a trunk body, i thought there was something missing. so i drew a bonsai tree growing on her trunk. whew, i feel better now.

you can see the other artists’ works on flickr. i love ‘bobi and bobi‘ and ‘toby tam‘ as always…

this drawing is for sale. please contact galerie MFK.

The “Christmas Machine” will be an exhibit about the
iconography of Christmas. It shows the outgrowths of our
prechristmassy imagination, tells about tradition and kitsch,Joseph and Salome
and all the other things which contribute to the party of the “Incarnation of God”.

Opening: 07.12.07 - 19h
Exhibition: 08.12.07 - 22.12.07; Wds-Sa 14 - 19h

“i want to eat the strawberry… and trout.”

「イチゴ、たべたいけど…　マスも…」

a brain can’t do what it wants by itself, not even when it’s standing on artificial legs.

i drew this a couple weeks ago.

1/4 of trout and 1/4 of me.

i’m drawing this for the broadway art encounter. i’d like to show new works for this event. i still have 3 days or so. i’m a last minute machine.

i don’t like the taste of trout. but i really like the ugliness of it. what’s up with the dark dots?! they need to use a concealer…
