Kikuji Kawada Los Caprichos
[1978]
“My “Caprichos” series has been drifting through synchronicities and coincidences in search of new meanings. Forever unfinished, its chaos continues, chained to the demon of tomorrow. The clouds, the moon, the city are my inescapable companions. When Galileo Galilei pointed his telescope at the night sky over Florence he was driven by a curiosity for new science and undiscovered memories. What emerges now, with the moon too close and the clouds in flux, is the occasional shadow of the demon. One afternoon, the golden moon covered the circle of the sun. The clouds raged, and unseen memories emerged from the city veiled in blue and black.”
