I created this graphic work to contribute to spreading awareness of global warming. While I was looking at a news article, I read that Earth will turn into the same environment as Venus if this global warming continues, and this made me think of this graphic work. This graphic work is about a magical encounter between a young girl and a robot. The two of them interact with each other through a stone that exists in the present and also the future. The stones that exist both now and in the future allow girls and robots to exchange pictures back in time, and the picture sent by the robot reveals that it is a robot sent by future people to study the future Earth that has changed like Venus, contrary to the expectation of a girl who has sent someone living on Mars. The contrasting purple and ocher colors used to draw the present and future Earth not only maximize the appearance of the future Earth, which has become barren unlike the present, but also give readers the impression that the mysterious person a girl contacts is the existence of Mars.
