I wrote "Tabi" in variant kana. The character is "Ta-bi". Variant kana is an old hiragana. There are several character shapes for one sound, and they could be chosen according to the aesthetic sense of the time. In this work, it is "Tabi" which means "travel". With variant kana, you have the freedom to choose the character for the word. You can also choose the brush stroke and the density. I wrote this character, which strongly expresses consciousness, in the modern era. I want to write this character, which is not rational at all, especially in this digital age where fonts from all over the world fly around with ease. This is because this character reflects the history of the changes in Japanese consciousness. "Travel" has a beginning and an end. The time and space in between brings fresh and valuable experiences. The line drawn between "ta" and "bi" represents the limited time and space of "travel". When the plan you made and unexpected events intersect, various emotions are born. And at the end, you come home and feel relieved and think that it's nice to be home. The journey of life is probably the same. We are born into this world, travel, and one day return to the time before we were born. I want to fully experience the time and space I exist in, and then go home feeling relieved.
