Installation
Sky-Water
The theme
of Water led me to explore another conceptual aspect and a form of
installation of cloth entitled Sky-Water, shaping water which links the
sky to the earth. I was inspired by the thought of ancient Japanese
people who used the word “ame” to designate both the sky
and the rain. The two things were clearly separated at the moment of
the introduction of Chinese ideograms. The sound “ame”
still exists, however, and still indicates the sky and the rain.
