KUNIMATSU Noboru"Bridging the 21st Century"
If there was no defeat in Japan, I might not have been born with permanent works of drift ice as a theme.
Our house crossed the Tsugaru Strait from Akita in the middle of the Meiji era and went to Hokkaido to settle in Hakodate, but we moved to Otaru with several big fire hits.
My father stayed as a pilgrim in his later years and continued traveling to the land in the south, but 40 years after the war I have continued to walk still while feeling cold drifting ice on the sole of the North that was devastated by the defeat.
During the defeat collapse and chaos, I became a fish without eyes and submerged on the seabed. - It was a wide snowy field without an animal 's footprints to rise.
As the winter approaches the coming year and the coming year it will rain, it will become a bamboo, beautiful snow will rain down. ○ Okawa stones with a cotton hat on the stream, and around here the scenery where the owl caught in the moonlighting of the owl has come to be seen.
The Sea of ​​Okhotsk will begin to appear in the immediate vicinity, drift ice will enter the bay of the coastal bay, eventually pushing up the ice on the ice, snowstorm running over it and ice being pushed up to create an ice belt to the offing .
Moon Night I came across the ice person of love at this cape and became a prisoner of drift ice.
Japan before the war was poor, and the winter in the northern part was even more harsh. In the morning, when the eyes woke up, a thick icicle (icicle) hung down in the window, and a beautiful ice flower bloomed in the window glass.
A beautiful ice crest developed on the window glass, when I was a child, a rich illusion was born from this ice crest.
Winter in northern is a season of meditation, but it is also a season of expectation to nurture spring. A faint light and hope were born in the dawn of the northern side that will soon come and the 21st century is about to dawn.
Stained glass is a series of works such as "Ice People" "People on Ice".
On the nature of the stained glass (lead connecting line), I put emphasis on planarization and considered the light from the back, but I think that the painting picture effect as a mural pain also increased when there was no light.
