Japanese Literature
Vivid, beautiful, calm and lingering Requiem. This is the new state of the Akutagawa Award winning writer. Life is a parade and a solemn journey of soul. The history of Taiwan and Japan, and the history of governance and war. As an artist, I returned to my hometown after my grandfather's death. I learned that my grandfather was a "Wansei" child who was born and raised in Taiwan before World War II, which was a Japanese colony. I researched about Taiwan under Japanese rule, listened to stories from acquaintances, and visited Taiwan at the invitation of my grandfather. My visit is to find out the cause and reason of my grandfather's death and confirm my own roots and identity. However, as if guided by something, I attend the funeral of a person of Native Taiwanese lineage. Through experiencing ceremonies, rituals and landscapes that are completely different from those of Japan, I am reminded and reminded of various images, such as war, life and death, memories of my grandfather, the death of my only friend from the University of Fine Arts.
