- Depiction:
Professional wrestling and martial arts are viewed by audiences surrounding the ring in 360 degrees, with each seat offering a unique perspective. Every viewpoint showcases the beauty and intensity of the combat. By employing Cubism, an age-old technique used by Picasso and Braque to depict objects from multiple angles in a single frame, Mio Okazaki captures the allure of wrestling and martial arts that photos and videos cannot convey. Okazaki often includes cheers and sounds, embedding her love for wrestling into the entire artwork.
The "STF #02" is a combination move where the wrestler crosses the opponent's legs and applies a face lock with their arms. This move is visually intense and overwhelms the audience at the climax of a match. The sophistication of the technique and the strength of the pressure leave the spectators in awe, embodying the aesthetics and power of professional wrestling.
