Memories 12F (60.6×50cm) Written by Hideo Sugaya

This is a work that evokes nostalgia for lost times and memories.

The paintings open a window into the distant past through a desolate stone wall. There is an arched opening in the wall, and within the frame is a depiction of a woman with long hair flowing in the wind. She holds a single golden rose, and its delicate beauty stands out.

In the background, a building that looks like a medieval fortress is depicted, with walls and structures that are crumbling like ruins, giving a sense of the passage of time and the weight of history.

The quiet beauty of the woman holding a rose symbolizes the eternity of beauty that transcends time, and is sure to leave a deep impression on the viewer.
