Sequoyah Aono

The time when I am alive now
The time when I am under darkness
People who survive with darkness
Life might be like this all the time...
Now I feel unknown darkenss from the bottom of my heart
I am carving darkenss into each of my sculpture
Wishing the darkness I feel now would be in the past ...
 
These works were done from the images whom I had 
seen daily in NY.   I have been carving these people
from the images which are depicted in my brain, not
from the camera lens.  With the great deal of importance
for memory and imagination I am pursuing realities in 
different people.
