Walking around the rice-growing area of Amabiki Village, one becomes aware that water is a gift that spins into life.
The moment I saw the reservoir pool with Mt. Tsukuba behind it, I wanted to float my work there, like a flowering lotus.
I wanted to create a work that, like a lotus, would represent the invisible cosmos between this world and the world beyond, the resting place.
I wanted to see it with my own eyes and make it part of the scenery of Amabiki.
