Concept of Nature

2018

Mixed Media

The Japanese were ethnic groups who feel the sound of insects, such as cricket and grasshopper, as comfortable music. At the moment when urban insects are going extinct, we are surrounded by artifacts such as household appliances and information devices rather than plants and insects. Maybe modern Japanese people living in urban areas have gained the feeling perceiving a kind of music by the noise emitted by household appliances. Finding nature and the universe in the noise of appliances may be said to be a new view of nature in the Japanese ?
