The background is a cartoon effect line. The character in silver is “Ha (break)”. In reference to the word “Jo-ha-kyu”, which is the three segments of performance and speed of plays applied in the traditional Japanese arts such as Kabuki, it represents a violent emotion that is born out of stillness. The “Sei (stillness)” of the bunny is fused with the “Do(movement)” of the cartoonish effect lines and the dynamism of the silver Chinese character pattern, creating a fusion of opposites.
