GARDEN OF THE WIND  

This is a garden of the wind – who can see the wind, isn’t it invisible? Imagine the garden as a calm oasis within the landscape where the wind ripples and stirs the water creating a constantly changing palette of images. Imbedded within this scene, are a series of pristine reflective islands; surrounded by nature yet isolated in the shimmering gently lapping water. These floating mirrors capture the adjacent landscape onto the surface of the water. In contrast the rippling water fails to capture it. Envision the forces of nature, wind, light and reflections that are creating these beautiful images and pause to think about the phenomena created. We can truly see the wind.

 

風の庭

 

これは“目に見えない風”の庭。ガラスの島が水面に浮かんでいる。ガラスの島は風で波立つ水面と対照的に、空や周りの木立を切り取って、水面に捕らえる。水面の漣は周りの景色を捕り損ねるが、たった今吹いている風を目に見せてくれる。
