Shows like Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie were among my first memories in front of a screen —perhaps that is where my fascination with magic began.

In the search for lucky charms, I thought of the Japanese Maneki-neko, associated with prosperity. However, the drawing took another turn: I decided to reinterpret it using my own cat, Mixy, as my model.


By placing him atop a fan, an unexpected connection emerged with the aesthetic and music of I Dream of Jeannie, as if Mixy, from that place, could grant wishes every time I speak to him.
