"Tsunagagia" extends Tajima's practice of invented, non-semantic titling — a strategy that insists on the work's self-contained identity rather than its reference to an external subject. The title has a Japanese phonetic quality but is not a standard word, placing it in the same category as "Benibe B" and "Kongamaruno" — titles that are verbal marks, not descriptions. The print is encountered as pure visual experience, its meaning generated entirely by the relationship of its forms, textures, and colors.
