"Pretty" is a collection of works by graphic designer Taisei Masuda. In 1981, he published "Hips," a photo book photographed by Motoko Ichinose, under the name Taisei Productions, which bears his name. He produced a photo book with a strong concept of "buttocks." This time, he has produced another unique book with a "belly button" motif. The following is from the afterword: "The belly button is the origin of human beings. From the moment a human being's umbilical cord is severed, a unique individuality is born. As an adult, your belly button is like another adorable face that represents your individuality. For example, take a good look at that lovely face. See, your libido will return to nostalgic days from long ago. The source of life, the bond between parent and child. Your belly button is also dissatisfied with not being conscious of the proof of such an important relationship. Although it unconsciously endures and lives a leisurely life, could the belly button also be a barometer of a person's mental balance? Each of the 30 belly buttons introduced in this picture book speaks to us in a light-hearted voice, like another adorable version of you inside our bodies... By Inoue Takashi."
