HIROSHI SENJU (geb. 1958)

 
<div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>Known for his ability to blend traditional Japanese techniques with modern aesthetics, Hiroshi Senju's sublime depictions of bands of cascading veils of paint evoke sensations of tranquility and awe. Senju began exploring waterfall imagery in the early 1990s, pouring translucent pigment onto mulberry paper mounted on board, creating cascading movement. In this work, "<em>Waterfall," </em>he masterfully bonds ribbons of cascading water into two curtain-like ethereal panels. Senju's interest in synesthesia is undeniable. "<em>Waterfall</em>" conjures sound, smell, and feel sensations as much as the rushing water's appearance. In the present work, he placed these dynamic elements in a context that grounds the viewer's sense of place within the natural world. A wedge of blue in the upper left corner contrasts the otherwise monochromatic palette, providing a sky association bounded by a hillside or cliff (for which Senju is known). Additionally, as the cascading water descends, it reaches a destination expanse at the bottom of the picture plane, where the force of the water disperses into a fine mist at the point of contact, serving as a visual anchor. </font></div><br><br><div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black> </font></div><br><br><div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>Senju's finesse is evident throughout.

Hiroshi Senju ist bekannt für seine Fähigkeit, traditionelle japanische Techniken mit moderner Ästhetik zu verbinden. Seine erhabenen Darstellungen von Bändern aus kaskadenartigen Farbschleiern rufen Empfindungen von Ruhe und Ehrfurcht hervor. Senju begann in den frühen 1990er Jahren mit der Erforschung von Wasserfallbildern, indem er durchscheinendes Pigment auf Maulbeerpapier goss, das auf Karton aufgezogen war, und so eine kaskadenartige Bewegung erzeugte. In diesem Werk, "Waterfall", verbindet er meisterhaft Bänder aus kaskadenförmigem Wasser zu zwei vorhangartigen, ätherischen Tafeln. Senjus Interesse an Synästhesie ist unbestreitbar. "Waterfall" beschwört Geräusch-, Geruchs- und Tastempfindungen ebenso herauf wie die Erscheinung des rauschenden Wassers. Im vorliegenden Werk hat er diese dynamischen Elemente in einen Kontext gestellt, der den Betrachter in der natürlichen Welt verortet. Ein blauer Keil in der oberen linken Ecke kontrastiert die ansonsten monochromatische Farbpalette und stellt eine Assoziation des Himmels dar, der von einem Hügel oder einer Klippe begrenzt wird (wofür Senju bekannt ist). Außerdem erreicht das herabstürzende Wasser eine Zielfläche am unteren Rand der Bildebene, wo sich die Kraft des Wassers an der Berührungsstelle in einem feinen Nebel auflöst und als visueller Anker dient.





Senjus Finesse ist durchweg offensichtlich. Er verwendet Maulbeerpapier, ein traditionelles japanisches Material, das für seine feine Textur und Stärke bekannt ist. Die natürlichen Fasern des Papiers absorbieren die Pigmente auf eine Weise, die subtile Farbverläufe und Fließeffekte erzeugt, die den visuellen Effekt des herabstürzenden Wassers verstärken. Er wendet traditionelle Nihonga-Techniken an, wie z. B. die Schichtung von Lavierungen, um Tiefe und Bewegung zu erzeugen, und die Verwendung verschiedener Pinselstriche, um unterschiedliche Effekte zu erzielen. Darüber hinaus setzt er moderne Methoden wie die Airbrush ein, um feine Pigmentnebel aufzutragen und so sanfte und nahtlose Farbverläufe zu schaffen, die die zarten Gischt- und Dampfschwaden des herabstürzenden Wassers imitieren.





Hiroshi Senju ist eine Hommage an die traditionellen Kunstformen seines Erbes und überschreitet gleichzeitig die Grenzen der zeitgenössischen Kunst. Seine Fähigkeit, das Erhabene durch Einfachheit und Abstraktion zu vermitteln, macht dieses Kunstwerk zu einem Zeugnis seiner einzigartigen Vision und künstlerischen Meisterschaft. Es ist eine heitere Erinnerung an die zeitlose Schönheit der Natur, eingefangen durch die Fähigkeiten eines meisterhaften Malers und Künstlers.
