Semishigure is a poetry anthology exploring the human soul and its relationship with the natural world. The visuals are intended to evoke a contrast between the ebb and flow of a vibrant mountain river, and the harsh rigid mindset that many people embody in today's society.
The monochrome presentation allows the reader to color their own perception of the abstract poetry works, and also encourages an open-ended frame of mind.
Each poetry piece is accompanied by an abstract drawing, with the intention of guiding the reader to their journey's conclusion through a visual representation of each reading.
The content of the poetry - kind and thoughtful, while simultaneously somber and authentic, encourages the reader to consider being honest with themselves and others about their innermost feelings and desires.
