「Utopia(ユートピア)」
これは理想郷を追い求め、旅に出た女性の物語。
女性は1人で理想郷を探す旅に出た。
目にしたのは日本の春。
五感すべてでそれを感じ、この国こそが理想郷だと感じている。
それは私自身がずっと追い求めているもの。
海外に拠点を移すにあたり、現在の私が考える理想郷を表現した。
1人で理想郷を求め、旅立った彼女にどこか自分を重ねているのかもしれない。
また理想郷を探し求めるということは、自分の環境が恵まれていたと気づくきっかけでもあるのかもしれない。
どんなに厳しい環境であったとしても、そばにいてくれる人や周囲の環境、満足のいく食事、何よりも日本で生まれたということ。
これらのことに感謝し、また進んでいく。
This is a story of a woman who set out on a journey, pursuing an ideal world.
The woman took off on a journey alone in search of an ideal world.
What she saw was spring in Japan.
She felt it with all her five senses and believes that this country is her ideal one.
It is what I have been seeking for long time.
Since moving my base overseas, I expressed what I currently consider to be my ideal world.
Maybe I compare myself to her who set out on a journey, searching her ideal world alone.
Looking for an ideal world may also be an opportunity to realize that our environments were blessed.
No matter how harsh the environment is, the people around me, the surrounding environment, the satisfying food, and most importantly, being born in Japan.
I’m grateful for these things and will continue to do so.
