The artworks of Sanami Shimada use figurative images of women to express a diversity of emotions and ways of being for natural lifeforms.<\/p>\n
The large canvas created for this exhibition is based on the concept of \u201cdancing alone to music that you perform\u201d. That spirit is directly conveyed by the image of a woman holding a trumpet and ballet shoes.<\/p>\n
Musical performance and dance are, by their nature, oriented toward the future. One could say that their essence is the continuation of individual moments that never pause in one place, each being spent for the sake of the next. In form, as well, they are constantly guided toward what comes ahead. Musical performance is led by sheet music or other performers. Dance is led by music and space.<\/p>\n
When we consider the aforementioned concept with these things in mind, the creator\u2019s powerful desire for self-determination becomes clear. \u201cDancing alone to music that you perform\u201d \u2014 in other words, every person must be guided by their own self.<\/p>\n
Of course, doing both things at once, on your own, is not an easy task. If it can be accomplished, however, would that not be the true meaning of controlling one\u2019s own future?<\/p>\n
When we speak of forging our own path to tomorrow, one might imagine acting in a bold, stately manner, but even that behavior may begin from awkward, comical first steps, accompanied by a distorted melody.<\/p>\n
It is that diligent effort which unlocks limitless emotional impact and captures the hearts of viewers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
