The Japanese Friendship Garden is honored to presents “Moisture and Light –Landscape in the memory”, the exhibition by Shuichi Hashimoto, an artist and graphic designer based in Osaka, Japan. His digital illustration has created a landscape from his memory with the theme of "Moisture and Light.” He used digital illustration to create a landscape that changes color and aspect depending on light and water, this is applied on a vertical screen like a hanging scroll.
Hashimoto believes that the persistent rain combined with the humid environment influenced the diverse culture of Japan. He has walked the mountains and valleys many times in search of the diverse landscapes created by moisture and light. Many people in Japan don't like the humidity in the summer, but he thought that people in San Diego would find the scenery created by "Moisture and Light” refreshing.
