Very rare promotional movie poster illustrated by Yoshitomo Nara. LOTTA Leaves Home captivates us with its direct, playful yet somewhat dark image of a rebellious looking girl possibly attempting to leave home with her only possession, a small pig. Informed by elements of pop culture, such as manga, anime, punk rock and children's book illustration, Nara conveys the sensibilities of rebellion and teen angst experienced by youths worldwide in his signature tongue-in-cheek fashion.

Through his succinct lines, graphics and abstractions, Yoshitomo Nara continues to reinvent figure painting in post-war Japan with his pastel characters, whose delightful presence extends far beyond their objective appearance
