山川景子は振り向かない Metamorphous: Mountains and Streams (Ms. Yamakawa Keiko Never Looks Back)

SYNOPSIS
私たちは現在より遥かに無垢で美しかった過去の風景を懐かしむ。私たちのそうした思いとは無関係に、山河の風景は自らの意思で絶え間なく永遠に変化し続ける。そして決して後戻りはしないのである。本作は数千枚の鉛筆画を素材としてもちいながら、このテーマを抽象的に表現している。
We sometimes long for the landscape of the past which was much purer and much more beautiful than that of the present. Regardless of these nostalgic feelings, the natural landscape is continuously changing as if in constant flux, with a will almost of its own. The landscape, the mountains and streams, never remains the same or returns to as it was before. Through a series of several thousand pencil drawings, this work abstractly depicts this theme of the metamorphical nature of the landscape.
