Passing Wind, Voices of Water
Risaku Suzuki(Japan)
Suzuki, who has photographed the snow, cherry blossoms, and lakes of the Northern Alps is holding an exhibition in the town storehouse. The artist questions “seeing”, explaining: “I am surrounded by the sound of water and the smell in the breeze. I feel the flow of time inside myself, and I leave that to my camera. Then, transcending my consciousness, the underlying world appears, and the special aura unique to this place rises.”
