The Naughty Kuromi Series is a live painting series centred around a Kuromi plushie, using the character as a stand-in for childhood, play and the quiet contradictions within innocence. Painted instinctively and in the moment, the works balance sweetness with mischief, tenderness with emotional rawness. Through loose, expressive brushstrokes and shifting colours, the series reflects on how childhood memories are felt rather than remembered clearly, the distorted, nostalgic, and slightly unruly.
