KESHI TO UMI (poppy and ocean)

KESHI TO UMI — Poppy and Ocean — an unusual pairing that places the vivid summer flower against the expanse of the sea. Kimura's combination of poppy and ocean creates a composition that moves between the intimate scale of the flower and the vast scale of the sea, the red of the poppy blooms finding an unexpected counterpart in the blue of the ocean. The pairing suggests a coastal cliff scene where poppies grow above the sea, or a more abstract relationship between flower and wave.
