I’ve never been so focused on either standing or breathing. Even if they’re something I do so easily every day. Every step and every breath gave me time to fully focus on myself, concentrating on the process with my eyes closed. I felt much cleaner and fresher as I expressed my breath in blue.
It felt like a meditation, feeling ‘myself’ through a breath and a line. I was a bit nervous at first but felt relieved as I finished the painting.


Usually, I don’t find the experience of being out of breath very enjoyable, but this feeling when I breathed out my whole breath at the same time actually doing something, and that this was being done with someone else beside me gave me a strange sense of liberation and comfort.
An experience that would have been different if done by myself! Breath breathed together!
What a meaningful time of breathing and art becoming one.

I believe I’ve never focused on the sense of inhaling and exhaling like this. There has always been ‘breath’ at the border between life and death, from focusing I felt something... I should continue appreciating each and every breath, inhaling and exhaling.
The aspect that ‘we can create it together’ was impressive, and I realized that collaborating with others could make more beautiful works than creating alone.
