« What is the most luxurious space like for modern people?
In the 21 century, mankind received an abundance of energy through nuclear power plants. However the incident at Fukushima power-plant on March 11, 2011 shattered our illusions. The infinite amount of energy we thought existed was no longer available. The most powerful and eternal energy source, nuclear energy, was vulnerable to the natural phenomenon: earthquakes. The power-plant lasted only for a few decades. For a long time, mankind lived with nature, appreciating the blessing of the sun and enjoying the feeling of the breeze. If we forgot that, this accident will give us an opportunity to adjust, and correct, our direction. Changing seasons, falling rain, mountains under fog; don’t these sights give pleasure deep in our consciousness?
This is why I paint waterfalls. » Hiroshi Senju, December 15, 2011 for Seekoo Web Radio
