Stream of Nature
In the Stream of nature things are born and return to the earth.
At one moment in that ever repeating pattern, am I, linking one
thing with another, ― as if inn one frame of a slow-moving video.
As did the ancient people lomg ago,
I want to express the strengthof ordinary things around us in their natural state.
