Across cultures and centuries, the deer has carried myth and meaning - a symbol of grace, passage, and the divine connection. In Kazuga Deer, the animal becomes a sacred messenger, inspired by its role in Shinto belief as a bridge between the earthly and the spiritual.
A white deer stands beneath a tree alive with birdsong, its body adorned with a colourful saddle and blanket shimmering in quiet ceremony. Above it, a celestial dome unfolds - patterned with delicate arabesques, a sky both protective and infinite.
The painting invites the viewer to journey “between here and not here,” where nature spirit meet, and every breath carries a trace of the divine.
