Laid out on a skin colored background, the eyes are contained and connected to each other by blobs of darker paint, making connections for viewers to eyes to travel across. While this style of \u2018anime eye\u2019 is typically used to communicate an interaction of gazes (i.e. that a character with said eyes is looking at and communicating with eye contact, creating a sense of shared space) and a sense of cuteness in said gaze, the eyes in Murakami\u2019s work both \u2018look nowhere\u2019 and \u2018see nothing.\u2019 In addition, without a subject for viewers to attach the eyes to, it is impossible to meet the gaze of the eyes. There is no linear perspective created by eye contact; instead, Murakami utilizes the nonlinear perspective of unseeing, differently sized eyes on a flat surface to create a separation between art and viewer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hana Tanabe &#8211; <a href=\"mailto:h%74%61n%61%62%65@%63on%6e%63%6fll%2e%65%64%75\">htanabe@conncoll.edu<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Creator: Takashi Murakami Title: Jellyfish Eyes Cream Work Type: Paintings Date: 2001 Location: Exhibited at Marianne Boesky Gallery, Spring 2001&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":1264,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[3],"class_list":["post-1246","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-image","tag-japan","wpcat-18-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1246","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1246"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1246\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1281,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1246\/revisions\/1281"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1264"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1246"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1246"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diluo.digital.conncoll.edu\/Asianart\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1246"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
