Evoke summer memories
Painted by Miyazaki Kesen

It is such an uncanny hot weather. I can not stop sweating a little.
I wonder if the rainy season has really dawned .... In order to moisten dry throat, we go to "Gallery · Conceal" in the back of Shibuya central street. Cool down the well-chilled ice chai at once, cool down the sweat glands opened, the body that was hot.

When I got a breath and looked through the gallery, a big pumpkin paint came into my eyes. A gigantic pumpkin floating in the center of the field where the blue sky of the fresh summer, the monkey, butterfly butterfly dances. And, in the pumpkin, colorful flowers are filled instead of seeds. In another work, countless fireworks that are disturbed from the pumpkin color the night sky. As if praising the blessings of the earth there was a splendid pumpkin that could be said as art created by nature, such as earth and the sun.
The artist is Miyazaki Kesukusu from Saga Prefecture. In addition to focusing on live painting and street painting, NHK "Hot time"The program set is also handled. In making this work, Miyazaki actually said he visited a field of agricultural chemical farmer Aikura in Aichi Prefecture. Perhaps it is expressed here that Miyazaki himself condensed the empathy and impression of the natural felt in the field himself.
And the stabbing vivid color stimulates my brain, evoke memories of nostalgic memories and memories of summer ... I bet that it is not only me who feels that way.

During the exhibition, Miyazaki is living a big pumpkin on the walls next to the exhibition work. If you have time, why not try talking to the friendly Miyazaki himself while confirming the progress of live painting.
