"Sometimes I try to talk to you with your language to
know about you more. In the same sounds,
with the same system but I make errors.
Seems I pretend to play with intimacy and here it is again,
thanking you ( for correcting my mistakes ) and sorry
( for your additional work ) is it greedy?
As senseless as a petal landing on my shoulder,
it's just the touch of a word. No matter what
language we use, are our words still light,
sounds will leave me high and harmonise over my height."
An extract from "Short Notes" a collection of paintings
and writings by the artist Hiromi Nakajima. With
themes situated in the tinted shadows of mortality
she knows that on the rocky road of our past
lives it's already too late for Heaven.
Her images are quickly made, merging primary tints with
muddied shapes perhaps this is an attempt
to stop the cool drift of forgetfulness.
