Spring is more than just a season.
It is the moment when invisible changes arise.
Something begins, something ends –
a time of suspension.

Even before the buds open,
before the colors awaken,
the presence of spring lies quietly in the air.

This exhibition reveals the many facets of spring.
Lines moving in the wind,
blossoms shining in full splendor,
the fleeting flow of life.

Drawings on washi paper
that capture the whisper of the forest,
a sculpture of a butterfly
that gently dances through the air.

Each work speaks of the transformation and transience of spring.
The words of poet Mari Kashiwagi accompany the works,
opening new perspectives.

A space where art and poetry encounter one another –
feel the quiet presence of spring.
