This art piece is a part of the exhibition "Floating Between the Tropical and Glacial Zones" in Tokyo Arts and Space, Tokyo.
Boats are an important means of transportation in the Amazon and the Sea of Okhotsk. In this work, the view from the bows of the boats in which Kamimura and Kurosawa boarded are reversed and paired with the left and right sides to create a geometric composition of the opposite views of the worlds of the tropics and drift ice. While there is a sense of graphic unity and a similar memory of the boat trip, the two contain diametrically opposed and divided thermal experiences.
