”The distant garden - a small place to be -”
March 29th Tue. 〜 April 9th Sat. 2022
12:00〜18:00 Monday Closed
The distant garden – a small place to be –
I would like to express the feeling in daily life, and what I believe aesthetic.
The essence of life is the grief of lost
But that sorrow does not mean the end
Because the life contains the destiny of vandalization and extinction
it will burn hard and heatedly.
The sorrowfulness horizon lost all means of escape
occasionally seeking flowers of joy
after the life pass away it leave its image and such image stand in new life.
Meaning of life is maybe
to keep the image on this world
The remnants of life are repeatedly shaken and circulated
I would like to depict such an image of life with illuminated vision.
Hoping that a new light will reach the viewer’s heart.
