Strawberry blossoms, the suburban train line, girls' school, paté babies, the Arakawa floodway, T-shaped two-lamp clusters. Early Showa-era Tokyo, a day and its phantasms in the life of a schoolgirl. A Bishōjo Art History Exhibition Work This work is adapted from Osamu Dazai's novel "Schoolgirl." In 2014, the curatorial team Trimega Laboratory (Saegusa Megane Kenkyūjo) planned the project, inviting emerging director Shigeyoshi Tsukahara to adapt the literary masterpiece by Osamu Dazai. Condensing three months of diary entries into a single day, it portrays—through the voice of a 14-year-old girl—the conflicting feelings toward her mother, friends, and a stranger on the train: whether they are splendid or filthy, heartwarming or repulsive. Observing the beauty and ugliness in her surroundings, the adolescent girl reflects and projects her emotions onto herself, extending into confusion about her body and role, as well as uncertainty about the future. This is a transitional period between innocence and maturity, where the girl is still contemplating her stance and how she will view the world from now on.
