Hiroshige's theory of capturing fleeting moments?
My art is about observing the world and translating its transient essence onto the woodblock. It’s about the way light falls on snow, the sudden rain on a traveler, the mist obscuring a mountain peak. These are moments that pass quickly, but they hold a deep beauty and evoke a feeling. By freezing these instants, I hope to make others appreciate the subtle, impermanent wonders of existence, much like cherry blossoms that bloom and fade.
