About her new painting, Hikari shares: "I drew a person with abstract and conceptual beauty and terror, with the theme of a 'secret longing'. The 'lines' that traverse the canvas and the abstract depictions of the eyes are an attempt to further obscure the human form, move the boundary between two and three dimensions, and break down the barriers between various concepts."
