My series "SOTOBA KOMACHI,卒都婆小町"

 I was always fascinated in Noh,  about "Sotoba komachi",this series is inspire by Noh play author is
Kanami(1333~1384),was originally a conversation between two priests and a 99 years old lady at a
Buddhist shrine.She later admits that she is Ono no Komachi(one of the 6 great wake poets in Heian period).She is then possessed by Captain Fukakusa( one of Komachi's lovers) angry spirit and confesses him visiting Komachi for 99nights in order to earn her love but lacking one and dying in agony. 
This series was exhibited in Berlin 2013,but I could not exhibited every pictures, because  to limit for gallery space.One of this picture is not show yet.
My Sotoba komachi series has  many other pictures.
I would like to have a solo show  next year, it will be held.

卒都婆小町は能楽作品、観阿弥作、小町ものの7作品の一曲.
屈指の難曲でなかなか上演されない。私はこの難曲にRie Goushi,郷司理恵の解釈で写真表現を試みた。卒都婆小町は2013年にベルリンで5作品のみ発表した。この作品はベルリンでは点数の都合上展示出来なかった作品のうちの一枚です。
