Unit for Y-axis 4

by Seitaro Yamazaki

“Since the Middle Ages, the sense of ambiguity, transience, and the quality of being like an illusion or uncertain has been called "yugen" and has been highly valued as a form of beauty in Japan. I have been incorporated this sense of Japanese aesthetics into my minimalist art. In painting, sculpture, installation, and photography, I am trying to capture the fleeting beauty that exists at the boundaries between the world that industrial civilization has torn apart, or beauty of the things that lurk and hide on the border between people's conscious and unconscious minds.”
