| dc.description.abstract | My intention is to provide "meditative" moments to all of us who must struggle with the fast pace of the modern world. These "meditative" moments are both calming and engaging. They resemble the moment of "satori," or "opening of mind," in Zen. Zen, embedded in the culture of Japan, is closely related to my work and sensibility. In realizing my intention, I have chosen the medium of video. Video can reach a wide audience through broadcasting and home videos. Its photographic ability allows us to directly record and celebrate our natural environment. As video is an experience in time, it can create quiet soothing sounds and slow subtle movements. It allows us time to "tune in" to the rhythm of the piece. In my video work, I depict basic natural elements such as light, water, and clouds, and their relationship to animate beings. | en_US |
