About
“Setsu Getsu Ka” photo exhibition of Eiji Kitsuno is held at KYOTO MUSEUM OF PHOTOGRAPHY Gallery Japanesque 1F“Tsuki” From Tue., September 11 to Mon., September 17 2018.
The theme of this exhibition is “Yuki, Tsuki, Hana (Snow, Moon, Flower)” which is representative of “Wa”.
In the Japanese concept of nature, it is believed that God dwells in natural trees, waterfalls, mountains, and so on, and that there is a truth on the background of it. Based on this concept, I made artworks with the aerial feeling, the color, and the composition used in the Japanese painting.
In this exhibition, all artworks was printed with Japanese paper, the paint of Japanese painting was used in some of artworks, and frames of some artworks is made like “Kakejiku” which is a kind of the Japanese painting.
