Nonoho Suzuki

The Kazuo Shinohara–designed "House on a Curved Road" was the home of my father, Shirouyasu Suzuki. After my father and mother passed away and the rooms were cleared, only light moves within my memories. By capturing this wavering light, the work is an attempt to grasp how the foundation of private expression exists through changes in the external world.

Graduation work at IMAGE FORUM and first film by Nonoho Suzuki.

I went to the company to get up in the morning. And I saw a video taken by a mobile phone. It's a festival to raise the large kite that Hamamatsu festival of Shizuoka. They raise the kite when the first child is born. I was printing the video to OHP. And I cut it to 35mm film. I then projected it. My wife and I went to raise the kite to the park. I attached a camera to thekite. The ground looked like my wife's belly. My wife gave birth to a child. We named her "Nemu". She was born in 2005. Nemu became one year old. She became able to walk. I wanted to celebrate with everyone.

This film is about gazes and goodbyes. An attempt to weave images with words and to weave a poem with images. I realize that living is suffering to see that Nemu, the one of my daughters, squirms with the struggle and sunflowers squirm to try to bloom.

In the year 2020, when the world was forced to ‘change’, I wanted to confirm what changed and what did not change in me. The white mask I wore became the screen projecting my past. My family is sometimes hurt, but support me as I suffer from schizophrenia. We live today while looking for the answer to ‘Who are we?’

This work is an experimental documentary animation by the traditional Japanese technique of "ABURIDASHI". And it's consists of three parts: Beginning, Middle, and End. "Beginning" is a personal video made to celebrate my friend Hiratake-san. "Middle" is about Hiratake-san's anger at the government responses to the Great East Japan earthquake. "End" is about the fear of war in which get involved individuals. This work depicts how my perspective changes from an individual to a nation over a period of 10 years.
