Japan: Images from a Visual Journal

The Roswell Teahouse

Featuring work by: Jan Kapoor

Exhibition: Tue, Oct 6 to Sat, Oct 31 2009

"The moon and sun are eternal travelers. Even the years wander on. A lifetime adrift in a boat, or in old age leading a tired horse into the years, every day is a journey, and the journey itself is home."

These words were written by the poet Basho some 500 years ago in his diary Oku no Hosomichi, Journey into the Far North.

I wrote this passage in the front of the journal I began when I traveled to Japan in October 2007; the words echoed in my mind as, at the beginning of my journey, I attempted to follow in Basho’s footsteps north to the temples of Motsuji and Chusonji, then on to Matsushima.

Every day was indeed a journey: into the past of a thousand years ago in Nara and Kyoto; into the timeless crafts of sumi ink and brush making; into a very special world of music and tea ceremony; into the 16th century world of a mountain village; and into the hyper-modern world of Tokyo and Shinjuku.

These images are a few of those that captured my eye and heart, a body of work that I have named Japan: Images from a Visual Journal.
