This work is the theme of Japanese identity. While feeling that Japanese are losing confidence, where is Japan 's identity? What is the universal value that Japan can transmit to the world? Elements of Japan's identity such as Japanese traditional beauty, future technology, Japanism, etc. were pursued and integrated by members and collaboration members of kuwahara hiroto, Paul Lacroix, and Jin Hasegawa. Finally, when Android face transforms, grotesque dark mask appears from inside. It seems that it is a metaphor for a strange anxiety towards the future brought about by technology that continues to evolve at phenomenal speed
