The birth of Seitaro may be one of the reasons that brought about a major change in my work, which has always been based on the theme of a couple "in love. It is a change from "loving each other" to "love," a love that envelops and embraces everything. The only thing that is certain is that the vector has begun to shift from the inside to the outside. Harutaro was born in January 2022. Because the birth coincided with the corona outbreak, I was unable to be present at the birth and felt frustrated and helpless. Yoko's image changed over time as the child was conceived. The birth of another life from a human being. For a father, childbirth is nothing but a mystery. A few days after the birth, I was able to see Yoko and Harutaro through the glass from outside the hospital. The sight of them was divine. To give form to my feelings at the time, I encased the Okinawan and Tokyo landscapes with light images of mother and child. It was like the birth of a new image of the "Virgin Mary" for me, a fusion of human beings and all things in the universe. It was also the birth of a family of three. (Ayarl: Ayarl means mother in the Okinawan language.)

The birth of Seitaro was probably one of the reasons for the significant change in my work. My work had been based on the theme of "couples: two people who love one another". The shift was one from "loving one another" to "love," a "love" itself that envelops and embraces everything. The only certain thing is that the vector has begun to shift from the inside to the outside.
Our son, Seitaro was born in January 2022. Due to the COVID-19 quarantine, I could not be present at the birth and felt frustrated and helpless. My wife, Yoko's image changed as she conceived the baby and as time passed. A new life was born. Now I was a father, and childbirth was nothing but a mystery for me. A few days after the birth at the hospital, I could finally see my wife and my son through the glass window. Their appearance was divine. To give form to my feelings at that time, I wrapped the landscapes of Okinawa which my wife was born in and Tokyo which I was born in with light images of the mother and the baby. For me, the set of images was one of the births of a new Virgin Mary who brings together the human being and all things in the universe. It was also the beginning of our family of three. < Ayarl means mother in the Okinawan language>
