宇宙飛行士毛利さんの写真集で見た地球は

そこに自分もいる

自分の住んでる家の外見をじっくり見た、

これを地球と呼ぶ時自分たちのこともふくめて

地球と呼ぶ

As I saw the Earth in the photography book compiled by a Japanese astronaut Mamoru Mohri

I learned that I was on the planet, too

I observed carefully the appearance of the home I live

When we call it the Earth,  including ourselves

we do call it the Earth.

当時夢中で作っていた 和紙に描いた冒険は

この写真集で地球とシンクロしているとすぐにわかり 

2000年の展覧会『地球Vibration』の会場のテーブルに何気なくおいてありました。

When I saw this book, I instantly realized that

the traces of the adventures, which I was devoting myself back then, on washi (Japanese handmade paper)

was synchronizing with the Earth.

So during my solo show “Earth Vibration” in 2000, I unconsciously put the book on the table in the gallery.
