創作理念 Design concept
錦鯉是日本傳統的動物，不僅以其美麗的色彩與圖案聞名，也被稱為「游動的寶石」。此外，牠們在水面上繪製出細膩的漣漪，畫面時而迷人，時而轉瞬即逝。這些形成的漣漪不斷變化、不斷演進。我們將這些漣漪聯想到了風景、人流、生活和瞬息萬變的時代潮流。同時，我們將漣漪不斷變化的樣貌視為新視界的可能與變遷的跡象。藉由本件作品，我們想要呈現身為日本人所描繪的美麗世界。最後，在新冠疫情生活限制緩解的三年後，我們非常期待能夠前往台灣，並與當地進行新的交流。
We propose this art project, “Koi Fish and interwoven ripples”, as the theme.
Koi fish, renowned for its vibrant colours and patterns, is also called a traditional Japanese “Swimming Jewel.” Furthermore, it draws delicate ripples on the surface
of the water. The scenes are sometimes beautiful, and other times are ephemeral.
The ripples thus created are ever-changing and ever-evolving. We associate these ripples with landscapes, the crowd, their lives, and transformation for the zeitgeist. Meanwhile, we view the ever-shifting appearance of these ripples as a sign of possibilities in a new vision and changes in modern times. Through this artwork, we, as Japanese, aim to depict the beautiful world. Three years later, the life restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic were released. We are looking forward to heading for Taiwan and engaging in new exchanges in the local community.
