Farewell R2 – Description

Scenes of “Re-Remake” based on Green color

■ Description



The original “Farewell”, the self-homage “Farewell Rewinded” of the year before last, and the brush-up are here “Farewell R2”. All of them are photographs that focus on the scenery of cherry blossoms dancing and the flowers blown by the wind, not the cherry trees, and it is a re-remake work. However, as a result of shaking it completely to the design this time, only the cherry blossoms are in the picture, and the surrounding information is omitted.

This does not allow you to find shooting location… However, it is open to the public as information that it was the place around “Sewari-Tei”. Located on the Yodogawa riverbed near Iwashimizu Hachiman-Gu, it is a famous cherry blossom spot with 1.4 km of trees lined up on the left and right sides of the elongated embankment. Every year the Cherry Blossom Festival is held, and many people gather.


However, because it is a wide riverbed anyway, there are nothing remarkable except cherry blossoms and it is a little boring compared with the famous place in Kyoto and Osaka City in the neighboring town. It seems like a very bigoted people to go here.

If there is still a reason to choose this “Sewari-Tei”, isn’t it a symbolic meaning put here, so to speak, sympathy to the concept? In other words, “Sewari-Tei” is a kind of conceptual art that makes cherry blossoms a visual point of attention. (*For details, see the work “隠遁者は思う“)


Frankly speaking of the concept, I think that is “people with different backgrounds may cooperate”. If you think so, then you could answer why the boring cherry blossom viewing scenery of this rural riverbed is repeatedly taken up as the background of various Japanese dramas and anime. In addition, I think that the responsibility as a photographic work to be taken “now” can be fulfilled to some extent.

… However, I am reluctating to continue the work of the same taste any more, and I am thinking of stopping it around here. Apart from the time of “Farewell”, can you easily realize a more sensible photo by taking a video today and later picking up one that is focused on a flower? There are circumstances to think so, as well.
