HIROSHI SENJU (n. 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.

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).

Conocido por su habilidad para combinar las técnicas tradicionales japonesas con la estética moderna, las sublimes representaciones de Hiroshi Senju de bandas de velos de pintura en cascada evocan sensaciones de tranquilidad y asombro. Senju comenzó a explorar la imaginería de cascadas a principios de la década de 1990, vertiendo pigmento translúcido sobre papel de morera montado sobre tabla, creando un movimiento en cascada. En esta obra, "Cascada", une magistralmente cintas de agua en cascada en dos paneles etéreos que parecen cortinas. El interés de Senju por la sinestesia es innegable. "Cascada" evoca sensaciones sonoras, olfativas y táctiles tanto como el aspecto del agua. En esta obra, ha colocado estos elementos dinámicos en un contexto que sitúa al espectador en el mundo natural. Un trozo de azul en la esquina superior izquierda contrasta con la paleta monocromática, que crea una asociación con el cielo delimitado por una ladera o un acantilado (por lo que es conocido el Senju). Además, a medida que el agua desciende en cascada, alcanza una extensión de destino en la parte inferior del plano del cuadro, donde la fuerza del agua se dispersa en una fina niebla en el punto de contacto, sirviendo de ancla visual.





La delicadeza de Senju es evidente en toda la obra. Utiliza papel de morera, un material tradicional japonés conocido por su delicada textura y resistencia. Las fibras naturales del papel absorben los pigmentos de forma que crean sutiles degradados y fluidez, realzando el efecto visual del agua en cascada. Emplea técnicas tradicionales Nihonga, como la superposición de lavados para crear profundidad y movimiento y la utilización de pinceladas variadas para lograr distintos efectos. Además, incorpora métodos modernos como el aerógrafo para aplicar finas nieblas de pigmento, creando degradados suaves y sin fisuras que imitan el delicado rocío y vapor asociados a las cascadas de agua.





Hiroshi Senju rinde homenaje a las formas artísticas tradicionales de su herencia al tiempo que amplía los límites del arte contemporáneo. Su capacidad para transmitir lo sublime a través de la sencillez y la abstracción hace de esta obra un testimonio de su visión única y su maestría artística. Es un sereno recordatorio de la belleza intemporal de la naturaleza, captada a través de la habilidad de un maestro de la pintura y el arte.
