Wondering

As usual, everyone is working quietly on their own today. The sun reflects harshly against the white floor, and guests from Malaysia are experiencing a funny phenomenon: getting sunburnt day after day, here in Okazaki, Japan in mid autumn. The outdoor-tolerant Malaysian guests continue their progress, walking bare feet, sprawled out, or squatting down not minding the wet floor. It’s hotter than I thought it would be, it feels like the summer had decided to continue. As far as photographs go, I cannot tell what country or which season we are in with every little thing among the whiteness creating their own unique atmosphere. This place is becoming an adventurous wonderland. We stay inside during rain, test the wind when they blow, wear sunglasses against the sun and enjoy the drift of the sun-setting sky. Being atop of a slick white building I thought the process might be a little more urban, but I guess this Penang Island-born OPEN GATE is destined to have somewhat of an Asian feel to its space
 I still haven’t grasped the full picture of the exhibition. The unseen preparation continues on and on.

今日も、粛々ず思い思いに䜜業䞭。床が癜いので、日差しの照り返しが匷く、マレヌシアから来た圌らが、秋の日本の岡厎で、なぜか日に日に日焌けしおいく、ずいう珟象。そしお屋倖に匷い圌らは、濡れた床も構わず裞足で歩き、寝そべり、座り蟌み、䜜業を続ける。予想より暑い、ただ倏が続いおいるようでもあるし、写真を芋る限り、どこの囜だか、䜕の季節だか、癜さに玛れお映り蟌む党おのもの党おが独自の空気感を醞し出す。䞍思議の囜になり぀぀ある。

雚の時には宀内で、颚が出おきたら颚を詊し、日差しにサングラス、倕日の頃の空の動きを楜しむ。

癜いビルの屋䞊なのでもう少し郜䌚的になるかず思ったけど、ペナン島生たれのこのOPEN GATEは、、やはり、、、どこかアゞアの空気挂う独自の空間になるのだろうか、、。しかし未だ党貌芋えず。。

それでも氎面䞋での準備はひたすら続く。
