Nobuhito Nishigawara / November 2025

Everything is temporary. Everything changes. Eventually, everything disappears.
Life is like fireworks—its beauty lies not only in its brightness, but in the fleeting moment before it fades, in contrast to the vibrant seconds that came before. We can’t hold on to the peak; instead, we move forward, embracing each moment as it arrives.

I am drawn to communication that exists beyond language. My practice is a search for new ways to share complex, layered stories and experiences that don’t rely on words. I don’t narrate my life through spoken or written language—I express it through colors, textures, material, and form. Each piece I make becomes a layered vessel of personal and abstract information, capturing fragments of identity and purpose. The result is an evolving, abstract landscape.

My work is not descriptive or linear. It is not anchored in the past or the future. It exists in the present—pure Qualia, raw moments of being. It is an invitation to pause, to feel, and to reflect. As I grow older, I find myself drawn to subtler things, discovering quiet beauty as a reminder to live in the moment. Whether the language of quiet beauty is universal or not, I create objects that bring calm and meaning to my own life.
