Happy Kimono (AI), edition 150 of 150 from 2001 — the final copy in a fully sold-out edition — depicts a kimono with a design incorporating the character or concept of "AI" (love or indigo, depending on reading). The title's parenthetical notation may refer to the color ai (indigo) that characterizes the kimono design, or to the concept of love as expressed through the garment's patterns. That this is the 150th and final impression from the edition gives it additional significance as the edition's terminus.
Happy Kimono (AI) was created by Kunio Kaneko (金子國義) in 150/150, 2001.
Happy Kimono (AI) depicts still life, daily life, and abstract.
