青年・祭

作家のことば

　ここ数年、祭と祭を担う若者達をテーマに描いている。夜ともなれば、あちらこちらから太鼓の練習をする音が聞こえてくる。
　十月に入り祭本番まであとわずか。各町の倉では若い衆が最後の準備に熱がこもっていることだろう。今年の祭がつつがなく、盛大に行われることを祈る。

For the past few years, I have been painting on the theme of festivals and the young people who carry them on. At night, the sound of taiko drumming can be heard everywhere.
The festival is just a few days away in October.
As we enter October, the festival is just a few days away, and the young people in the kura of each town must be feverishly making final preparations. I pray that this year's festival will go off without a hitch and be a grand success.
