H.C.R. 2009 Visual Design
Waterfalls have been attracting people with its’ majestic beauty since the beginning of our history. Confronting its’ power, we feel a deep gratitude and awe to Mother Nature.
The Visual Design for H.C.R.2009 was created by Mr. Hiroshi Senju, a world famous artist of Japanese-Painting, who is widely praised with his series of “Waterfall” paintings.
There were other candidate-designs from his series of “Waterfall,” more realistic and powerful; however, we chose his latest work, more abstracted. We consider this image of waterfall can grab the hearts of the viewers more.
The abstracted image of “Waterfall” induces many other images, such as an eternal flow of time or strength and fragility of life, and we hope this art work could inspire people to understand the Diversity of “Welfare.”

She commented “Having consulted production staff and the exhibition organizer, I decided to work under the theme of KIKYO (Chinese Bellflower), typical Japanese graceful autumn flower. I hope tender social welfare system reducing the burdens of care givers who take care of their family members will be realized. Visitors should be varied, people who use home care and rehabilitation equipment, people who need to come to the exhibition, etc. It will be my great pleasure if those visitors have a look at my work, take a deep breath and feel relaxed.”

Fallen ginkgo leaves brings autumn to the urban parks. The chirping of sparrows watching over happy circles of families are as sonata swaying in the skies. With each falling leaf, a happy song from heaven and playful red dragon flies.
