Description
"Harukaze" — the spring wind — is one of Japanese poetry's most evocative seasonal images: the wind that carries cherry blossom petals, warms the air after winter, and announces through its particular quality of movement that the season has definitively changed. Nishijima renders this invisible seasonal force through its effects on the visible world: the swaying of a branch, perhaps, or the way the spring wind catches fabric or moves through the spaces between traditional buildings, changing the quality of light as it passes.
