In Praise of Sunshine
Life flourishes under the light falling from the heavens.
I made this piece based on a theme of ephemeral scattering cherry blossoms that express the direction of the wind, as the flower blossoms that dance above me brighten my heart with the sparkle and prayers of life.
Relief is used to express the light and cherry blossoms, while the inlaid mother of pearl and the black lacquer emphasize the deep beaty and transparency of the wind.
