Symmetry of Life

The symmetry that appears in the body of any living organism is integrated into the gene, but interestingly, the shape of the living organism appears when fragments such as vegetables and leaves are randomly and symmetrically arranged.These fragments used in the work are vegetables such as cabbage, peppers and mushrooms, marine products and dead leaves. Densely gathering, swirling, branching, being entangled, repeating, wrapping, etc., I tried to express how the shape of life on the earth is emerging by invisible natural energy from the fundamental part of nature as like of natural history.

Eriko Kaniwa is a digital artist based in Tokyo, and the creator of SENSEGRAPHIA FINE ART. Sensegraphia is a conceptual redefinition of photography, in which the visual aesthetics of the photograph are used to develop and express the sense of nature that enables us to recognize that humans are a part of nature and that we are centrally involved in nature's dynamics. Through fine art, Sensegraphia puts forward a philosophy and creative activities that reestablish the essential unity between people and nature.
