Comfortable space


                        One hundred years ago, people used to relax staying here for their vacation.
                        Since then, our life has completely changed.
                        However, there is no doubt that it is still comfortable being here today.

The ending


A beginning never comes without an ending.
There is no reason to be so sad.
An ending must lead to something new.

In the silence


My voice, footsteps, efforts on my travel; everything is absorbed into the earth and the sky.

Journey

 
                       Even if we stick at home, our new journey will start again tomorrow.
                       We cannot go back on our rail.

Clouds


I took a deep breath.
My breath seemed to make a cloud move slightly.

Downtown


The tradition is still alive, and on the other side of the invisible wall, modern spaces are expanding. Eternal stream is running below our eyes, and future castles are reaching up to the sky.
We can swim around in the chaos of the time in the town.

Ruin


Man destroys things focusing on efficiency.
Nature destroys things focusing on beauty.
Wind, rain, snow, sunlight; all are great sculptors.
