The birth of the universe, and the origin of all creation. Humans invented tools, discovered fire and painted murals in dark caves.

Now it's time for us, humans, to reconsider energy. Light animation by TOCHKA.

After the Great East Japan earthquake and tsunami of March 11, 2011, I witnessed many changes. Towns were lost in a moment. Children living in Fukushima couldn’t go out and play freely. This work was made from the pictures drawn in the landscapes of parts of Japan. Using the reflection of sunlight, we tried to capture people’s emotion for "energy". Source: CaRTe bLaNChe
