Statement
The shimmer of leaves swaying in the wind, the warm resonance of words once exchanged. When I encounter the small joys that suddenly emerge in daily life, I am sometimes struck by a somber sense of resignation: the realization that they cannot last forever, and may even be threatened a mere second later. I find myself standing still, overwhelmed by the miracle of my own existence within this specific time and place.
To prevent this sensation from dissipating, I use these vivid scenes of happiness etched in my mind as a starting point to capture a world that is serene, yet veiled in an unsettling atmosphere. This process brings the outlines of life’s buried miracles to the surface. It is an act of grasping a fragment of universality hidden in the depths of my personal memory, confirming a fundamental connection with others that transcends both era and place.
