“Light and shadow and wind constantly surround us. Shadow exists because of light. The inner nature of light is to create shadow. Wind delivers atmosphere and nature to us. Light, shadow and wind are eternal, from past to present, from the present to the future in our consciousness and our subconscious sees.Through this piece, I would like to expose light, shadow and wind which exist in you and in me.”
