This work, created for Kinan Art Week 2022, is based on documents of the research conducted by the artist in Kumano. The deep forest, captured from the perspective of walking along the ancient pilgrimage route of Kumano Kodo, through the endless and intricately connected rhizome-like roots, conveys the forest’s profound layers of history while also evoking a sense of all-encompassing nature. The work is a tribute to Japanese author, biologist, and naturalist, Minakata Kumagusu.
