Ten Shi Huu Hitsu

Please relax when you look at my works.

As if real flowers were there.
Then, you will see.

I make my works by adding a faintest "something" to the presence of flowers.

Then, between flowers and I, I feel something.

Verberalization is very difficult, but, if you also feel something
when you see my works, I will be very happy.

"Ten shi huu hitsu"
If possible, I want to become a wind that draws lines on the sky as a large
sheet of paper.

-KOEDA Shigeaki

-Overview-
KOEDA Shigeaki has begun to create the artworks which combined painting and photograph ｓince 1980.
His works are highly praised not only as photograph, but as contemporary art.

The title "ten shi huu hitsu" is cited from the poem of the prince Ohtsu(Born in 663), the son of Emperor Tenmu,
who was a highly-reputated poet.
The poem describes his wish to create poems and drawings freely.

As the intention of this poem, Koeda wants to make his works freely.
The artist's wish is not people to see the works, not even works to exist. Koeda wants to make a precious
and tender feeling when any two more things entrust each other.

This time, we exhibit the newest works from the series"Flower-Between eyes".
20-30 works are exhibited, including molding works. Please enjoy the encounter of the artist
with the flowers.
