Carved, 3D wooden wall plaque depicting one of Mira Fujita pierrot clowns.  

Mira Fujita is a Japanese-French artist known for her distinctive style, which often features ethereal and dreamlike imagery. Mira Fujita is known for her art featuring Pierrot, a character from the Commedia dell'arte tradition. The Pierrot series is one of her most iconic and recognizable bodies of work.

Pierrot is a stock character in the Commedia dell'arte, a form of Italian theater that originated in the 16th century. Pierrot is often portrayed as a sad or romantic clown. In Fujita's paintings featuring Pierrot, she captures the melancholic and poetic essence of the character. The figures are often portrayed in dreamlike and surreal settings, reflecting Fujita's unique blend of Eastern and Western artistic influences. The use of Pierrot in her art allows her to explore themes of love, tragedy, and the human condition in a way that resonates with viewers.
