COLOR BEGINNING
May 2nd - June 6th 2009
I am looking for a color of ‚the matrix space’ which human being possess unconsciously.
Although, it only that I believe what we do, of course.
It is a space that we own unconsciously and it is omnipresent here and there along with colors and light.
It expands freely over unconsciousness (the closest unconsciousness to death or death) and reality (a life on earth).
It might be that nature in our mind is the space itself.
It is a space that connects to the world before lives and after lives.
The space where you were before a birth (womb), and the light and color that you see when you close your eyes and face the bright side during a day, seems to be something that make us realize about the ‚matrix space’.
Is it the light of earth through a membrane?
Does it mean that we are not to look in directly?
It is tinted pink and orange, and skin color, close to a drawing.
Like an atmosphere, it is transparent, it is a light, and it is a color at the same time.
On the contrary, by looking at the lucid blue in predawn, we feel ‚the matrix space of earth’.
This is visible.
It is based on these two repeating experiences.
It is the color beginning, the color that is in the state of beginning.
It means a state of colors and also means that the beginning of the work of color for myself.
‚Color beginning’ is title of the small watercolor painting by Turner.
It was when I was working on some works of colors that I first met this phrase, and it was lingering more than the work itself.
There is no connection between this work and my work. Yet, I read some articles about the works of that time, I was surprised to realize that they were connected actually.
The fact that the road that one man walk is connected to others astonished me with a mysterious sensation
