The second-year students majoring in Western painting and composition performed a body painting with a Swimmy theme. The white T-shirts they were wearing were their canvas. The performance, which used dance and paint to accompany Muto's narration and music, was truly fantastical. Before you knew it, the paint had overflowed from their T-shirts, and their entire bodies had become canvases. There were many moments when the venue and the ring became one, such as when they handed brushes to boys in the audience and had them paint directly on their faces. It was an impactful project in which the ring of the T+ Arena was the only stage for the performance.
