作品詳情
父が孤独死した。
冬を越え、春になってしまったようで地元の新聞にも載った。
それが父であるか判別するのに2ヶ月かかった。
彼はまだ50代だった。
葬式も無かった。
その後彼の実家に直接行ったのは私ひとりで、母は大きな花束だけ彼に手向けた。最近のお供え花は、それとは思えないほどに華やかできれいだ。
あれからもうずっと、母が手向けた美しい花のことを考える。
どうしようもなく人が人を愛してしまうことも、憎んでしまうことも、気が狂いそうなほどの寂しさも、手放しがたい孤独も。
眠ることは小さな死だという。
私は今日も自分のシングルベッドで眠る。
My father died in kodokushi (lonely death).
He was there all winter.When found in spring, he was mentioned in local newspaper.
It took 2 more months to verify that it was my father.
He was only a little over 50 then.
There was no funeral.
I was the only one who personally showed up to see his relatives.My mother offered him a big flower arrangement.Recent funeral flowers are gorgeous and beautiful, despite its motive.
Since then I have been thinking about those beautiful flowers that my mother has offered.
And how one could love so helplessly, and how one hates, and about loneliness that drives one crazy, and about solitude that’s hard to let go.
They say that sleeping is like a small death.
I sleep, also today, on my own single bed.

She lives and works in Kyoto. She graduated the Kyoto University of the Arts in 2013 majoring in painting, and finished the graduate course of Mixed Media Field also at Kyoto University of the Arts in 2015. Her work indeed reflects her personal experiences. However, what she tries to express is the vulnerability and “helplessness” of human being; how irrational and ironic it may seem, it is a universal truth that rich and poor, life and death, love and hate are one and indivisible. Her masterful realism may be a catharsis, giving form to what she had to see. The works from the series Leisure Class shown at the “Portrait” exhibition visualized the way of thinking, formed in the course of her upbringing. For this exhibition, she paid more attention to the feeling of others around her, to deepen the original concept. The emotional disturbance incurred by death may in some cases be reflected in the form of dedicated flower, or an object of worship. The children’s shoes or a leather jacket with the deceased’s memory could affect the heart of the ones who were left behind. The artwork depicting such relic, observed through an unimpassioned eye, seems to present an aspect of human nature. (Gallery Koyanagi)
