Let's start something new

「 Apple 2020」  2020 Tempera,Aqyla on canvas

"Blue seagull exhibition" will be held on the 20th、Successfully completed (?) under the coronavirus。I have put up an unfinished work for sale.、Although it is late, I will be exhibiting the completed work here (although not much has changed).。

Personally、I have been working on works that can be called the "Apple" series for a long time.。There is no such thing as this being a single result.、It's about time to sort out the trial and error so far.、Aiming for a comprehensive work、I was thinking about this work before and after.。

I think we will have many opportunities to see works like this throughout this year.、We are already trying to integrate some small items, so、Those prototypes、I'm sure there will be more failed works in the future.。Expectations? please。

I will return to the blue seagull exhibition.、This time too, I felt the importance of “failing”.。Are all the works that were found “interesting” “on a fine line between failure”?、There were many works where ``there is an interesting attempt in failure'' and ``you don't even realize it's a failure.''。The openness to admit some (or a few) failures、Self-centered curiosity is the ``cause of failure''、In that sense、Failure is what it is、I believe that this is the origin of one's individuality.。

All masterpieces in the history of painting、There are only ``big failures'' before ``previous masterpieces''。The history of painting is itself a history of failure.。baroque paintings、今でこそ絵画の黄金時代と呼ばれていますが、The word "baroque" itself、「野蛮な」「奇妙な」という意味を持つ語です当時は「変な絵だなー」と思われていたのです

At the "Blue Seagull Exhibition"、もっと変な絵(もちろん自分から変だなどとは思わないでしょうが)をいっぱい描きましょう新しい絵を描きましょう。But、「新しい」とは何でしょうかそれは自分にとって「普通で自然で面白い」ということです。however、「普通」「自然」という意味が他人の決めた尺度ではなくあくまで「自分にとって」ということが条件ですことばは簡単そうですがこれを実現することは決してたやすくはありません

ここで「高齢者」という言葉を開き直り的に使いましょうもう先が長くないなんだかんだと言いながらここまでしぶとく生きてきた今さらこの先も他人目線の絵を描いていたら死んでも死に切れないのではありませんか?お孫さんやひ孫さんをかわいく描いてあげたってどうせ義理でしか喜んでくれません。More than that、新星爆発じゃないけれどもう一踏ん張りしてバクハツして死んだ方が楽しくないでしょうか?きっと子どもさんもお孫さんも「じっちゃんばっちゃんやりたいことやって死んだわうらやましー」って尊敬すると思いますけど
