Dancing Flowers No.105

Born in Kagawa, raised in Hiroshima, and lives in Aichi. After graduating from the Nagoya University of Arts Graduate School Simultaneous Representative Present Course, he created many works. The theme is “a picture that sings and dances,” and it is created with the feeling of improvising a performance with flowers and plants. Born in Kagawa, raised in Hiroshima, and lives in Aichi. After graduating from the Nagoya University of Arts Graduate School Simultaneous Representative Present Course, he created many works. Based on the theme of “singing and dancing pictures,” I create it as if I were improvising with flowers and plants. Hana is my co-star. While responding to the colors, rhythms, and flows of plants, colors and lines are freely layered according to the senses of the body. Rather than drawing, it's more like singing or dancing, and it's like leaving that moment's breathing and feeling of elation on the screen. While musical improvisations disappear on the spot and are invisible, paintings can leave traces of physical movements, emotions, and resonating time. The rhythm of the time of the session with the plant is engraved on the handwriting, bleeding, and margins. Drawing, singing, and dancing are the very “joys of being alive,” which can only be achieved by being born in this three-dimensional world. On the other hand, there are also pains and fears in living. Sometimes, I'm overwhelmed by that weight. At that time, when I look at the plants that sprout in spring, spread new leaves with each passing day, and bloom, it seems as if they sing loudly about the joy of living. Also, while swaying softly, I am deeply attracted to the strength and freedom of plants that spread as far as they cover the earth, and I want to sing together. For me, painting is not about drawing a world without suffering; it is empathy for life that still sings, dances, and tries to live with joy in this world. I would be happy if the rhythm and colors of the screen drawn in such a way freely enter the viewer's body and senses, and lead to a feeling that “you don't have to think too hard” and “you can just be yourself,” take a little shoulder strength, and enjoy living.
