このTシャツは、2025年にアーティスト・ワクイアキラが、
葛飾北斎の晩年の創作の地・長野県小布施の北斎館で開催された展覧会「Wave Transitions」を記念して制作したものです。
Tシャツに使用されたグラフィックは、ワクイ自身がキャンバスにアクリル絵具で描いたペインティング作品の一部を高解像度で撮影し、プリントしたもの。
その筆致や色彩のダイナミズムが、布地の上でも鮮やかに息づいています。
展覧会「Wave Transitions」より
波とは、単なる水の動きではなく、
かたちを持たない「力」や「思考」が、現象として立ち上がる瞬間を示すものです。
葛飾北斎の波と出会ったとき、そこには時代や文脈を超えてなお響く、うねりのエネルギーが宿っていました。
この展覧会は、北斎の波を出発点とし、
その造形に導かれるように生まれた一連の作品群の軌跡です。
制作のなかで「波」は意味を拡張し、
自然の運動、身体の感覚、視覚文化の様式、そして記憶や祈りの在り方へと広がっていきました。
このTシャツは、変容し続ける世界の中で、アートが波のように形を変えながら息づいているという思索の断片を、
日常の中で纏うことのできる一枚です。
このTシャツは、あなたが夢に描いていた以上のものです。
やわらかくて軽やか、ほどよいストレッチ感があり、着心地もよく、どんな体型にもフィットします。

This T-shirt was created in 2025 by artist Akira Wakui to commemorate the Wave Transitions exhibition, held at the Hokusai Museum in Obuse, Nagano Prefecture—a place where Katsushika Hokusai spent the final years of his life.
The graphic printed on the shirt captures a high-resolution detail from one of Wakui’s original acrylic paintings on canvas. The dynamic brushstrokes and vivid colors have been faithfully reproduced on fabric, making each piece a wearable artwork.
From the Exhibition “Wave Transitions”
A wave is not merely the movement of water.
It is the moment when a formless force or thought rises and becomes visible as a phenomenon.
When encountering Hokusai’s waves, what emerged was an energy of motion—alive and resonant across time and context.
This exhibition began with Hokusai’s waves as its point of departure,
tracing a path of works born as if led by the shapes themselves.
As the process unfolded, the meaning of “wave” expanded—
into the movements of nature, the sensations of the body, the styles of visual culture,
and the forms of memory and prayer.
This T-shirt embodies fragments of these evolving reflections—
a tangible record of waves shaped within a shifting world,
allowing you to carry a piece of that thoughtful energy into your everyday life.
This t-shirt is everything you've dreamed of and more. It feels soft and lightweight, with the right amount of stretch. It's comfortable and flattering for all.
