Although we use resin that is resistant to yellowing, its physical properties mean it will gradually yellow over time. The artist has incorporated this yellowing into the concept of the work as part of its aging process, so please keep this in mind when considering a purchase.
レジンは難黄変の製品を使用していますが物性上長期的には徐々に黄変します。作者は黄変もエイジングを楽しむものとして作品のコンセプトに織り込んでおりますのでご理解いただいた上で購入を検討して下さい
A tsukubai (also known as a tsukubai or tsukubai-gura) is a water basin (chōzubachi) used to purify one’s hands before entering a tea room. Since fewer homes now have tea rooms, they are often placed in gardens as decorative features, and it is common to see goldfish swimming in them.
This work features a goldfish swimming quietly in the center of the tsukubai, with the light of the winter full moon glistening on the water’s surface abstracted and
reconstructed.
If you stand quietly before this work and listen closely, you will likely hear the sound of water flowing from the kakei (water channel) into the tsukubai.
蹲（つくばい 蹲踞とも）とは茶室に入る前に手を清めるために水をためてある手水鉢（ちょうずばち）のことです。現在では茶室を持つ家が少なくなったため庭園の装飾として置かれる事が多く、その中で金魚が泳いでいる風景もよくみられます。
本作は蹲の中で静かに泳ぐ金魚を中央に配し、水面に煌めく冬の満月の光を抽象化して再構成しました。
この作品の前で静かに耳を澄ましていただければ、筧から蹲に水が流れる音がきこえてくることと思います。
