“Yugen” is a sense, a sight, a sound, that reveals -- for a brief moment -- the mystery behind the world. Yugen is the substance behind a haiku moment. The detail that makes you take a second look at a photograph or painting and holds your eye. It is an image that portrays “karumi” -- “a light beauty with subtlety, such as a shallow river over a sandy bed” (Basho). Yugen photographs are digital “haiga” based on the aesthetics of Japanese painting and haiku poetry. In haiga, poetry and imagery combine to reveal the mystery of simple, and hopefully profound, observations of the everyday world. In my Yugen Haiga, photographs combine with poetry, zenga, and natural wood and washi textures to create meditative art for your sanctuary. Namaste. |
