"Hello World is a collage painting that is depicting the last hero in the world, left alone in a world of chaos. In this sense, this image is like his greeting, "hello", to the new world, which was ruined by mankind. It's continuing my theme of expressing concern for the future, mixed with cute elements like the stickers." - Hikari Shimoda.
