[Title of work] ⑤ Journey of the heart, starry sky

[About the work]
When the earth is 150 million kilometers away from the sun, the birth of life is 3.5 billion years ago, the players of the Silk Road, Kenji Miyazawa's view of the universe, etc. I thought. Also, create a sculpture. What is the unstoppable, unstoppable thing that crumbles bring to your heart?
Twenty years ago, in front of the parthenon gable sculpture I met at the British Museum in England, I felt like an obsession for eternity in exchange for the life of an ancient man. I felt that if even a piece of the act of creation remains, a human spell will be left behind in something that will be weathered and crumbled, and that it will be a strict business trip to the modern space.
[Production] '90 Yonago Sculpture Symposium
[Session] July 29-August 31, 1990
[Participating in the '90 Yonago Sculpture Symposium]
Impression of Yonago
Thank you for inviting us to the Yonago Symposium. It was a week late for my private use, but I had a fulfilling time.
I am deeply grateful to all the staff, and now that the session is over, I am reminded, deeply moved, and impressed. Yonago was blessed with good hot water, good environment, and seafood, and I was able to enjoy a lot of fresh fish, seaweed, and sashimi. Both rice and water were really delicious.
However, what we must not forget about Yonago this time is the "humanity of the people" that has been nurtured and cultivated in that climate. It's simple, strong, deep and warm. For me, who was busy with the cluttered life of Tokyo, I felt at ease like an oasis.
It was a time when my poor heart was embraced in the big foot of Oyama and saved. Also, I was able to work hard on the production comfortably.
thank you. Yonago, everyone.
