Mind-scape drawing

 

After long absence I created Mind-scape drawings and I could envision a light-scape when I put a cloth in front of me. At first I could not understand this and simply I kept on drawing my visions wishing that each stroke should be one prayer out of one thousand dedicated for the well-being of my friends. In foreign countries I used to walk around an historic site and enjoy watching ruins as I could envision divine signs of a soul. One day I came to acknowledge that my visions and signs at an historic site looked identical. I rejoiced at this and continued creating my mind-scape drawings. Today I realized that the surrounding space had become clear and what I called light-scape looked clearer so I enjoyed drawing it.
One day I rented a gallery space near the Yasaka shrine and exhibited a tapestry work that I named the sign of a soul. Many passengers jumped into the space telling us that they were greatly attracted by the tapestry and they could not resist entering to their surprise. This happened many times and people told us the same thing. Spontaneously we joyfully laughed at each other. I felt that when a light-scape within one’s internality became manifested, the surrounding circumstances would change, so I became motivated to keep on expressing the beauty of human internality to pave a path for a future with hope.
