Longing
I don't know what it is about Japan that inspires such deep longing, even when I'm there. Maybe it's because it's a culture that allows space for longing. Japanese artists are the masters of negative space. That which whirls around forcing your eye to focus in on an object. When a design is well done its object will spur your eye back into negative space.
Is longing like negative space? Courting the object of its desire, each never able to be the other but making the other whole?
Thank you for traveling with me, and if you can, do come for tea.
