木曽義仲相関図

Correlation of Kiso Yoshinaka

concept

義仲の相関図を描く機会を頂いてから沢山の方から教えを受け、ゆかりの地への訪問をしました。史実と伝承、様々な解釈、私の心には等しく新鮮なイメージが刻まれ、それは彼方から届いた星の光のようでした。義仲の肖像を北極星のように作品の中心に据え、その周りを巡るように、義仲が生涯で関わった人や景色を想像し、一枚一枚の絵を星座のように配置しました。点と点が線を結び、その隙間に、その距離や対比に、観る人それぞれの終わらない物語が浮かび上がると良いなと思います。

Since I was given the opportunity to draw a correlation of Yoshinaka, I have learned from many people and visited places related to him. Historical facts and folklore, various interpretations, and equally fresh images were engraved in my mind, like starlight reaching me from afar. I placed Yoshinaka's portrait at the center of the work, like the North Star, and surrounded it with the people and scenery that he was involved with throughout his life, arranging each picture like a constellation. I hope that the dots will form a line, and that the gaps, distances, and contrasts between the dots will reveal a never-ending story for each viewer.
