ヴィーナス
TAKERU AMANO
is eternal, an icon that transcends time and space.
Always different, yet always the same.
Do you feel something new when you contemplate her?
Love and desire are the primal forces
that move the world.
It’s the fuel of all creations.
Venus reflects a thousand mirrors of our passions.
For artists, she is a muse, and for rulers,
she is the source of all power.
Get lost in the colors of Takeru’s Venus, and try to
understand her mysteries.
Venus will guide us and open the gates
to the deepest mysteries of our humanity.
