Whale Echos
DESCRIPTION
Watercolor, color pencil, crayon, paper | 2022
In her new series of ethereal paintings, artist, poet, and spiritual thinker Satsuki Shibuya continues her work translating the energy of the unseen, spiritual world into something more tangible. She offers the following poem to accompany Oceanic Cosmos:
Looking above, looking below,
all is a part of us to know.
We may hide, we may jump,
frolic and flow,
but nothing changes the fact that we are of the Earth,
and part of the Cosmos.
Particles of dust, stars, the moon, and sun, circulate within.
Our blood, tears, veins pumping with life,
coming directly from the sea and night.
Brothers and sisters, let us Unite,
for we are of the same elements,
rainbow of colors,
coloring the night,
bringing light under the Earth’s skies.

“I associate sounds with colors, or more specifically, certain sound waves as colors. It is a combination of the sound tone, mixed with a sensory connection to the vibration felt throughout the body which produces an association with a particular color.”
