This work is inspired by my previous art series “Veins of the Sea”… This time I am dealing with other basic elements of life – earth. These basic elements are important on many levels in my life, just the same way they have been since ancient cultures all over the world.
I was truly inspired already in 1993 by one of Japan’s most interesting contemporary artists, Toshikatsu Endo‘s text. He was writing about these basic and classical elements in a deep and artistic way. My solo cello work “Constellations” (1994) was based on his poetic thoughts.
My journey will continue with these elements in this artwork.
