Kagemi [Beyond the methafors of mirror]
“‘Kage’ in kagemi means ‘shadow’. Both a play of light, from brightness to gloom, and the reflection shown in a mirror, on the surface of water, “mi” means “see”.
“‘Kage’ in kagemi means ‘shadow’. Both a play of light, from brightness to gloom, and the reflection shown in a mirror, on the surface of water, “mi” means “see”.Kage-mi gives us kagemi: “mirror”.Origin of light, surface that we gaze upon, which looks back at us, which reflects, in which we are reflected.Rising up out of the horizontal plane of water, the face has become vertical. A vague and fleeting state evolving towards clear outlines. The right hand enquires, the left replies. To begin, set up a virtual plane.“Ushio Amagatsu
