Intro text by Taco Hidde Bakker[/vc_column_text][vc_text_separator title="The days and months are travellers of eternity, just like the years that come and go. Each day is a journey, and the journey itself is home – Matsuo Basho"
The idea of Mu goes beyond having to choose. In translation its meaning comes close to ‘does not have’.
Searching for Mu — taking shape in photographs, film clips, sound and folded paper — is tantamount to a quest.
I have journeyed nearly as far away from home as possible, first to Tokyo, then on to Abashiri. Nevertheless, a journey outward equally means an exploration of our inner selves. A journey inward searching for acceptance that life comes to an end, yet at the same time knowing that life is circular, starting over time and again.
