Hello everyone

The artwork and images of stones you send me are very interesting and inspiring. I am working on a stone-inspired images and will send it to you later.

Today I am sending some artwork inspired by the stripes.

皆さんが送ってくれる石のアートワークやイメージは、とても興味深く、創作力を刺激してくれます。 僕も石からインスピレーションを受けた作品を今制作中なので、近々送ります。 今日は、ストライプからイメージした作品をいくつか送ります。

Dear Ayame,

Dear all,

thank you for your mail and your wonderful high resolution pictures/works, Ayame ; )

It's amazing how we can influence each other.

I tried to find Riku Onda's Night Picnic. But I think the book exists only in japanese language. I've read "the Aosawa Murders". I liked it. There is this book of hers (in german language) "Fish Swimming in Dappled Sunlight". Do you know it? Can you recommend it? The paesina-stones are really special. Unbelievable that they are made by nature. : o

I feel really inspired by your collage works. There are ideas coming to my mind for a work I could realise for our exhibition in August.

.... to be continued

Dear Kiyoshi,

Dear all,

I like your stripe-works very much, Kiyoshi. Did my work inspire you?

Unfortunately my attempts to pack the stones in strips were not presentable ; )))

At the moment I'm preparing a show on May 23rd in Frankfurt. So time is short. But I am still thinking about / working on our Berlin-Tokyo-Project.

..... @all: I enjoy your work so much.

Hi everyone.

Today is Children's Day in Japan. During this season, Sometimes we see “carp streamers” as well. Stone pattern with stone wrapped around it. I made a "carp streamer" with it that I made before. Breeze of May really feels good.



（The real carp streamers are not like this）
Katrin sent us an image of a stone that looks like a machine! I will make something.

今日、日本ではこどもの日。この季節には、たまに鯉のぼりを見かけます。 以前に作った石が包まれた石の模様の紙で鯉のぼりを作りました。この季節の風は、本当に気持ち良いです。 （本当の鯉のぼりはこんなじゃないけど） カトリンの送ってくれた石は、メカニカルだね! なんか作ってみよう
