Works to view together
The Old Tree
The tree sends the departing one with one arm and holds the one left behind with the other.
The Crow and I
Knowing one another's solitude without speech is the dialogue between the crow and me.
The Jetty
An empty boat has reached the jetty, but the person has not returned. Arrival and absence occupy the same scene.
The Departing Boat
Painting may not be holding something fast, but quietly allowing what will disappear to depart.
Ieodo
Fūdo is not a view observed from afar, but a condition entered bodily, where one receives the same wind and cools within it.
A Long, Long Longing
Waiting is not time spent obtaining something, but keeping the heart directed toward what does not come.
