    Description

    Shiawase Kazoku depicts a family in a colorless monotone color scheme. The motif of the family living an ordinary life is expressed using simplified animations and pictorial expressions. We type "lol" in emails even when we are not actually smiling, we smile in front of others even when we are in pain, and it has become commonplace for us to make and convey our own facial expressions as a matter of course. In addition, simplified cartoon and pictorial expressions are easier to read than the ambiguous and profound emotions of human beings. By painting human beings with simplified two-dimensional facial expressions in beeswax, which leaves rough brushstrokes, Kanai asks viewers "What is human nature?
