As I entered my atelier at the Skyrocket center at Omotesandou, a large magnificent pot was placed in such a way that made me raise my voice. It was a newly created ceramic work of art by Mr. Idaki Shin for Zenzai. It generated a special energy similar to one from the Jomon era. I became confident that my Zenzai would be successfully produced using this pot. I rejoiced at its beauty and my heart became fully animated. Then I started creating my own art pieces with full vigor and was motivated to make what I cherished most. I drew a mind-scape drawing on a glass flower pot. Light of water and glass was mingled and it glittered so beautifully that I myself trembled. I raised my voice again out of joy. At night I went to Café Akira since I had renewed its interior with my art works to attend a salon gathering. It became a truly creative space. Light met freely with other lights at a deep unknown dimension of our world. Impressed by its beauty once again I raise my voice. This presented a new world full of hope for every living creature. At the gathering I realized a deep meaning of my art piece made of glass, Komasui. Because I could envision an invisible world, I put into words an energy of light, winds blowing from our future and its aroma. Each word opened a new door and made a poem that seemed to connect us to a glorious future. When I had created in Kyoto a poem about a princess I turned my head as I heard a voice addressing me from behind. Nobody was there. However I envisioned a beautiful scenery of eternity that I recently expressed in my work, Komasui. I was grateful as I could share my vision with many people through my art works.
