comfortable time
ファインダーの中に被写体を捉える時
優しい時間が私の中にながれる
誰もがその存在さえ主張できない 安堵と平穏のあたたかい時間
ここはまるで母体のなかのようだ
いつかくる現実への帰還に備え
今はただこのあたたかい羊水のなかで深く眠りたい
When I catch a subject in a finder
I spend comfortable time
Nobody can insist on even the existence
Time of relief and the peace
It becomes the feeling of the baby in mother tummy
For the return to reality to come sometime
I want to only sleep deeply now in this warm amniotic fluid


approximation
自分自身が被写体を捉え共存する時間に、出来るだけ近い時間をかけて画像を定着する。その空間に潜む空気感や被写体がもつエネルギーまで捉えたいからだ。それはエーテルの海を泳ぐ魚をエーテルごとすくいあげるような作業である。これらの作品に使用した画像は長時間の露光で撮影されたものであったり、複数の画像の集積であったりします。長時間露光や画像の集積を行う理由は、被写体がもつ情報を出来るだけ多く捉え、その全てを定着したいと考えたからです。数学的に言う「総和」を出すようなアプローチでもあり、その結果として被写体の不確実部分と本質的部分を明らかにしその被写体の持つ近似値のようなものを捉えようと考えています。
The reason for that is that I think that it is possible to capture the feeling of the air which lurks in space, as well as what appears like the energy which the subject has by anchoring the image in time during which I coexist with the subject by having captured it. I do so by taking the time that is as close as possible to that duration. It is like the work of scooping the fish which swims in the sea of ether along with the ether each time.The image which I used for these works was photographed by long-time exposure or is the accumulation of plural images.The reason why I accumulate exposure and the image for a long time is from the next reason. It catches the information that a subject has as much as possible, and this is because it wanted to fix all.It is approach giving "a grand total" to say mathematically.As a result, I clarify uncertainty part and essential part of the subject. And I intend to catch something like approximate value to have of the subject.
