YAMI

​

​

Yami is a meditation on darkness as a living space, full of meaning. Absolute black dominates the canvas, yet it contains a latent shadow—a visual secret revealed only through introspection.

Artistic description

​

A line of trees timidly emerges in the upper corner, like a blurred memory in the mist. The piece calls for silence and contemplation. There is no light, but neither is there despair.

Darkness here is a mental state, an inner landscape. Yami does not impose an emotion—it invokes one from the void. Like a visual haiku, it leaves space for the echo.

​

Yami (闇) is the Japanese word that means “darkness” or “gloom,” not only in the physical sense, but also as a space where silence, the unknown, or the invisible reside. It is a full, dense darkness, but not an empty one.
