Tokyo University of the Arts Japanese Painting Three-Person Exhibition

 
Three third-year students majoring in Japanese painting at Tokyo University of the Arts will be holding an exhibition themed around people.
We will re-examine the human figure as a motif that has been depicted since ancient times and express it using the medium of Japanese painting.
Try to find out who is behind the layers of the painting.
