“Time flowing in the same way for each person. Everyone flows differently through time.” Yasunari Kawabata (1899 - 1972), Japanese novelist, Nobel Prize for Literature, 1968. Portraits and full body depictions of the two artistes are inspired by people who lived or live their lives according to moral codes. People who are not content to self restrictions in their personal life and happiness, give something of themselves to others, at a time when visibility and mutual understanding between people has become extremely difficult.
