​Scenic Photographic  of MIYABI

雅（みやび）とは、上品な美しさを保っている様子の表現で、日本人独特の奥深い美意識を表す日本語です。

「雅」の語源が「宮び」であることから、主に宮廷風の王侯貴族（もしくは単に和風）の優雅さを指すようですが、日本文学者のドナルド・キーン氏が指摘するように、日本人の美の概念の中心的な特徴は、「暗示、または余情」「いびつさ、ないし不規則性」「簡潔」「ほろび易さ」が、互いに複雑に関係する独特な感性にあることに間違いありません。

私の中に深く眠っている「Japanese elegant＝MIYABI」を探求する写真の旅は今日も続いています。

Miyabi  is an expression of the way in which elegant beauty is maintained, and is a Japanese term that expresses a profound sense of beauty unique to the Japanese.

The etymology of the word 'miyabi' is 'miyabi', which seems to refer mainly to the courtly, royal and aristocratic (or simply Japanese) elegance, but as the Japanese literary scholar Donald Keene has pointed out, a central feature of the Japanese concept of beauty is undoubtedly its unique sensitivity to the complex interrelationship of 'suggestion or affectation', 'irascibility or irregularity', 'simplicity' and 'fragility'. There is no doubt that this is a unique sensibility that is intricately related to each other.

My photographic journey in pursuit of the 'Japanese elegant = MIYABI' that lies deep within me continues.​
