When I was a boy, I caught about a hundred mackerel while using a sabiki rig. There were similar-looking hooks on the rig, and many similar-looking fish would bite them one after another. They were all "mackerel," but some with slightly larger eyes or slightly longer bodies, showing me their rich individual differences.
By the way, my art practice is nothing special. I am simply producing a piece of sheet music. I just put a pen on paper and play the piece of sheet music over and over again. Even the same type of paper varies in size. Even if their sizes are the same, there are individual differences.
You and I both have places to go and things we want to do when we wake up tomorrow. You can affirm your intention even if it is not special, interesting, or even meaningful. You can do so because there are always individual differences.
Now, let me show you how I do it.
―
A lounge of a home.
From large windows, garden scenery is visible.
The window frame divide it into two.
If you open the window, frame parallel slide, scenery is further divided into four. Two parts of them with a single glass, one with a double glass, one without glass.
Each has subtly different appearance.
However, the position of the outside scenery does not change.
The position of hydrangeas planted in the garden does not change.
Even when closing the screen door, even when closing the sliding door, its position does not change and continues to affect the window.
Clearly, the scenery cannot be carried with a window frame.
The scenery is there, unchanged, if you move the window frame.
Even if you closed a shutter, the hydrangea is there.
