Konoike has repeatedly drawn impressive eyes that stare at the viewer since she started her creative activities. Here, a giant baby that looks like something out of a myth is looking up and screaming with urgency. The shards of glass that cover the surface diffuse and reflect light in all directions, combined with the effect of rotational motion. Our eyes cannot see anything without light, but we lose sight of objects when we are dazzled by light. In Genesis, the birth of the world begins with the separation of light and darkness. Since ancient times, humans have been fascinated by light, transcending regional and cultural differences, and have revered its magical effects, sometimes using it as a symbol of power. The face of a newborn baby is filled with the primordial sense and tension of a human being who pursues light.

The pelt underneath is from a wolf that was exterminated in Mongolia more than 20 years ago. The oldest manufacturing technology known to mankind, tanning, has made it possible for traces of animals to enter our daily lives. After setting up Earthbaby, the artist improvised and placed a wolf skin here as if to create a kind of balance.
