Jacob
Hashimoto: Armada (1998-2010). Mixed media.
What do
we see when we see art?
This is
really a weird question, and the answer depends on the amount of our feelings
and experiences.
Yesterday
I visited the Jacob Hashimoto´s exhibition at Galerie Forsblom, and suddenly I
felt a rush of happiness.
In front
of my eyes was a big room full of
hundreds of small sailing boats, moving softly on the invisible sea.
The sight
was pure beauty, illusion of freedom – something a man could and could not create. Illusion
made with wood, paint, fabric, electricity, contingency, reminding us of the unknown powers of life.
