Blog #3: Tomihiro art museum (Yuta Mizuma)

Hello, my friends :)
Today I'll tell you one museum that I've been to. Look at a picture below.

Painted with hand or mouth ?
 
Do you think he has painted with his hand ? Actually, no. He painted this picture by his mouth !! Can you believe it ? This work is exhibited in Tomihiro art museum which location is Midori city, Gunma. When I was 6th grade of elementary school, I visited there. It was during a school trip. I liked his works very much. It was because his works contained of course pictures and poetries, so I got what he wanted tell me clearly.
 


This is Tomihiro Hoshino's work

One of what I saw in the museum was the picture above. One poetry on right side says following thing: "How many do these leaves fall for one flower during one winter ? The camellia leaves which is polished by the wind of winter  is twinkling like my mother". It wants to tell us that chirlren can't grow without thier paresnts or adults around them, I think. I recommend you to visit that museum !! You can get to know its reason if you go there. I'm kidding ! It's because you can find what humans need to follow in dairy lives with his works.

Do you like visiting museums ? Of course I like it :) If you have any questions, please ask me !!

  2. Hi, this is Ms. MacGregor. I know about this artist and have seen many of his works before - mostly on calendars or postcards. However, I didn't know there was a museum devoted to his works. He is really a determined and amazing person to overcome his physical challenges to create beautiful art.

    1. Yes, I've seen his works not only at that museum but also on calendars or postcards. And also, I've read his autobiography (but I don't remember its title). He was a PE teacher of junior high school. When he taught his students apparatus gymnastics, he fell down from the rings, the trampoline or something, so he broke his neck bone, and part of his body below his neck could not move at all...

  3. This is Minako. I was surprised at his art! He writes using his mouth better than I write by hand. It's amazing!
