The Landscape of the Sea 2021 - 2023
Each day, I create the color of that day's seascape using watercolors, then paint it on a small piece of paper, recording it, like a diary. Thinking about the vast ocean that is not there before my eyes, creating color with paint, and putting that color onto paper makes me feel that the atmosphere of the sea that day is right there on the paper. This is an experimental work in which I create a shifting personal atlas of landscapes of the sea as I also question the notion of the landscape.
毎日、水彩絵具でその日の「海の風景」の色を作り、小さな紙に塗って日記のように記録している。目の前にはない広大な海を想う、絵の具で色を作る、紙にその色を載せる、そこにはその日の海のたたずまいがあるように感じる。風景とは何なのか、移り行く個人的な「海の風景」のアトラスを作る実験的な作品。
