A world attacked by the wonders of COVID-19.
In the midst of the inky blackness, where life and death intersect, I saw a ray of hope.
The brightness, beauty, and strength of life.
People connected to each other, the cycle of life.
In the face of an unknown virus, fear, and hardship, the deeply wounded mind and body regenerate, and eventually new buds sprout from the wounds.
What in the world is going on?
The wonder of what is happening inside the body.
The workings of a vast number of cells.
The mysterious power of cells that are reborn every day.
The powerful energy that can be seen at the boundaries of life.
The invisible world is visualized through imaginary creatures sewn together from felt and plastic clay modeling.
This work was created with praise and prayer for life.
COVID-19の驚異に襲われる世界。
生死が交差し合う漆黒の闇のなかに、
私は一筋の希望の光を見た。
命の輝き、美しさ、強さ。
繋がり合う人々、命の循環。
未知のウィルスとその恐怖、苦難に立ち
向かうなかで、深く傷を負った心と体が
再生され、やがて傷口からは新しい芽が
吹き出していく。
いったい何が起きているんだろう?
体の中で起きていることの不思議。
おびただしい数の細胞の営み。
日々生まれ変わる、細胞の神秘の力。
生命の境界線で見えてくる力強いエネルギー。
目には見えないそんな世界を、フェルトを
縫い合わせた架空の生き物と樹脂粘土の
造形で可視化。
生命への賛美と祈りを込めて生み出した作品です。
