[Comment on the exhibition]
We have captured a moment in which a woman is living her life with her own individuality, and expressed each moment with shining lines of color.
These lines flow beautifully through each and every day, transcending time and always connecting to something that symbolizes the era.

[Artist Statement]
"The Lines, Colors, and Women of Youth."
From an early age, I learned calligraphy from my mother, who was a master of calligraphy, and ever since then I have been drawn to lines, something that goes beyond words. Lines have the power to strongly and flexibly transform space with a single stroke, and lines are full of influence even when walking through town and looking at the scenery. Lines are used to form various shapes and are used for letters and many expressions, and even for invisible things like air and the flow of time.
The lines express the various dramas of life, and many colors can be seen in them. Sometimes they are all gray, but sometimes the scenes I imagine are filled with many colors.
Women have always been symbols of the times. Even when I trace my life back through time, I am still connected to my memories of my youth, and these lines are what I use to express myself.
Those lines and colors represent each person's individuality, and we recognize each other's thoughts and differences, realizing that they are not something that can be divided by lines or colors, but that this is why many things are made up.

[Artist Profile]
Shintaro Inoue
Born in Niigata Prefecture, she learned calligraphy from her mother, who was a calligraphy teacher, from an early age. Later, she began painting on her own, and established a technique for expressing women using only colored lines. Making full use of the exquisite dynamics and sense of balance of lines that she developed through calligraphy, she expresses women who live in the present with their own individuality through shining colored lines, highlighting their spirituality by eliminating all unnecessary elements. Life is a line made up of dots called "now," and these lines act beautifully each day that comes, transcending time and always connecting with beings that symbolize the times.
