MOON
'The Guidance of the Moon - Engraving the Rhythm of Life'
Just as the sun provides light and warmth to life, the moon is also an indispensable presence for life on Earth.
 The ebb and flow of the tides, created by the moon's gravitational pull, 
have promoted the evolution of living organisms and have been marking the rhythm of life.
The night is a tranquil time that should not be filled with artificial light.
 The sea illuminated only by moonlight reminds us of the natural rhythm that life should inherently possess.
In this artwork, the eternally remaining hair embraces the memory of life (DNA), 
expressing the mysterious world of the night where life and death exist side by side.
 Although hair does not feel pain, it carries a message that connects to the next generation as a definite proof of life.
The moonlight emerging in the dark night illuminates the boundary between the fundamental desire of life and the inevitable death.
 This tense silence is depicted as an essential part of life. The idea of 
"memento mori" (remember that you must die) embedded in the work simultaneously highlights the transience and preciousness of life.
In modern society, would eliminating the night with artificial light not threaten the natural workings that life should inherently possess? 
The quiet time under the moonlight is a precious gift for all life.
The "MOON" series explores the influence that the moon has had on the rhythm and evolution of life, 
using the symbolic motifs of water and the human body to express the fundamental duality of life where life and death, 
creation and extinction coexist. Through this work, we can deeply contemplate the mystery and dignity of life.

『月の導き - 生命のリズムを刻むもの』
太陽が生命に光と熱を与えたように、月もまた地球上の生命に欠かせない存在です。
月の引力が生み出す潮の満ち引きは、生物の進化を促し、生命のリズムを刻んできました。
夜は人工の光で埋め尽くすべきではない、静謐な時間です。
月明かりだけが照らす海は、生命が本来持つべき自然なリズムを思い起こさせてくれます。
本作品では、永遠に残り続ける髪が生命の記憶(DNA)を包み込む姿を通して、
生と死が隣り合わせにある神秘的な夜の世界を表現しています。
髪は痛みを感じないものの、確かな生命の証として、次世代へとつながるメッセージを伝えていきます。
闇夜に浮かび上がる月の光は、生命の根源的な欲求と避けられない死との境界線を照らし出します。
この緊張感のある静寂は、生命の本質的な一部として描かれています。
作品に込められた「メメントモリ(死を想え)」の思想は、生命の儚さと尊さを同時に浮き彫りにします。
現代社会において、人工的な光で夜を消し去ることは
生命が本来持つべき自然な営みを脅かすことになりはしないでしょうか。
月明かりの下での静寂な時間は、すべての生命にとって大切な贈り物なのです。
「MOON」シリーズは、月が生命のリズムと進化に与えてきた影響を探求し、
水と人体という象徴的なモチーフを用いて、生と死、創造と消滅が同居する生命の本質的な二面性を表現しています。
この作品を通して、私たちは生命の神秘と尊厳について深く思いを巡らせることができるのです。
