    Second O-Kunchi 2010

    Acrylic  on canvas – 81×61 cm (private collection) My second O-Kunchi…. Same street, same balcony… A boat crosses the street. The sun is bright… The boat disappears… The sound of drums…

    First O-Kunchi in Nagasaki. 2008

      Acrylic on paper – Framed  56×75 cm. (private collection) The town celebrates O-Kunchi. From my balcony I watch mothers all dressed-up  walking towards the elementary school and children waiting for the dragon to  come and dance for them, followed by the heavy portable shrine shaped like a  boat that will soon roll by.
