Bambi's mural is complete! “Love magic” is about to descend on Kurima Island
Finally, the wall art that brings life to the scenery of Kurima Island has finally been completed!
The mural depicting the vibrant large sea turtles drawn by artist Bambi and his team, along with the island’s insects, birds, fish, and animals, has created a new “love scene” on the island.
The drawing depicts a sea turtle symbolizing good luck and prosperity.
The sea turtle drawn by Bambi symbolizes the natural beauty and the strength of life on Kurima Island.
Around the sea turtles, the animals that live on the island—insects, birds, and fish—are depicted with their own unique characteristics.
And in the center is a heart drawn with a Japanese carp symbolizing fertility and marital harmony, symbolizing the happiness that will come in the future.
From Bambi's comment:
I based the main motif of the sea turtle on Kurima Island, and I drew many creatures that live on the island around it.
The work is completed by having people stand in front of the painting, expressing the coexistence of "the island," "living things," and "people."
By combining the abundant "nature" and the "thoughts" of the island residents who want to protect it, and the "love" of the couples and families who stand here, we will carry on into the future.
Couples will be blessed with happiness when they let go of their hands!
This mural also contains a message that happiness will come when a couple join hands.
In the murals, if you place your hand on the parts depicting sea turtles and hearts to take a photo, the belief is that it will bring happiness to those who visit!
The moment when lovers and families hold hands while taking photos, it feels like a vow to the future.
Hidden message: The murals actually contain many hidden messages, and the more you look closely, the more new discoveries you might make. Please take your time to take a look!
With the warm support of the local community, the production becomes even more special!
During the production period, Bambi and her team received donations of fruits and sweets from local people, and they sincerely appreciated the warm support.
Interaction with local people enriches the art production even further, and Bambi also says that "the warmth of the local people is reflected in the artwork."
On the final day, a touching bouquet of flowers was presented and an interview was conducted.
On the final day when the mural was completed, a bouquet of flowers was presented to Bambi by the district chief and a thank-you message was delivered.
Furthermore, Bambi, who was interviewed by a local newspaper, spoke about the significance of the new art on Kurima Island.
From Bambi's comment:
"I am deeply grateful that my work was created in this special place called Kurima Island. I hope that this mural, created together with the people of the island, will be loved and bring happiness to those who visit Kurima Island in the future."
Thanks to Bambi and Kurima Island!
