Tsunami-Fukushima

TSUNAMI 14:46:18, March 11, 2011. Moment magnitude of 9.0.

May 29. I went to the Tohoku region for the first time after the earthquake. Three months had passed.

It could have been because of an approaching typhoon, but the world was covered in grey.

While riding a car, I passed many small villages.

There was no sign of people, or even more, I could feel no sign of life.

The oppression of being unable to open the car window.

A fear that cannot be seen. By cutting out the world that spread before my eyes,

I may have been trying to fill up something beyond explanation.
