Title:
I would like to share one second with you.

Description:
This is a series of 25 silkscreen prints, originally created from a single panoramic photograph of a landscape. From this photo, I made 25 slightly different prints of coastal scenes. When each of these 25 versions is animated as a flipbook, resembling a stop-motion video, it forms a one-second landscape video. The work captures moments in time, as if each print is a snapshot frozen in time. The sea depicted in the series is located near my hometown in Japan, within walking distance from the house where my family still lives. I created this series with the intention of sharing my nostalgic memories of this place with someone who may one day own these prints. The prints feature occasional pixel-like representations and are composed solely of yellow and blue layers, with red missing. This is meant to symbolize how memories gradually fade over time, reflecting the nature of memory itself. It is also a metaphor for the disappearing natural environment. The images of each print can be referenced from the URL above.
