Matsufuji used to produce works associated with death. However, when his father died suddenly, the theme of death did an about face and he began to create babies which are the image of birth. The motif of babies represents the start of life and are an existence that can change into anything in the future. Matsufuji does not only create images of babies as life, he also makes the babies into Buddha statues or Kabuki actors adding a humorous side to his works.
