出産はアートだ。

存在を認識できるのは、どうもしようがないツワリと小さな命が写った写真だけ。エコー写真をもらえるから、定期検診が待ち遠しくて。マタニティクリームで愛でながら、モノクロ写真に思いを馳せるの。そんな日々も今思えばあっという間で、日に日に大きくなっていく私のお腹。突っ張っる足に押し出されるように、我が子もとうとうエコー写真からオーバーフロー。やっと会えたあの子は寝返りうって、立って、歩いて‥…成長を見逃すまいとそんな子育てがすごく楽しくて。まさしく一心同体だったあの「トツキトオカ」の思い出も、気がつけば頭の片隅に。十数年、クリエイターの端くれとしてやってきたけど、ある日気づいたの。私の最高傑作はあの子だって。それで考えに考えて作ったのがこのポスター。あの子の二十歳の誕生日に、ポスターの前で乾杯するって決めてるんだから。

Morning sickness and the ultrasound photos were the only ways to assure the existence of this small life. I just could not wait to go to my periodic medical checkup to get newest ultrasound photos. While spreading cream on my belly, I admired and thought deeply of my baby through the monochrome photos. As I think about how time flew and my belly got bigger each day, I was so happy to see my baby alive, healthy, and growing. I saw legs stretching out and my baby was not just a picture anymore. The baby I met eventually rolled over, stood up, and walked... Every stage of growth was so enjoyable and I was so desperate not to miss any moments. In the corner of my mind, all the memories of the whole nine months that I was one with my baby still remain. I have been a bit of a creator for more than ten years and one day I came to realize that my baby is the best of the best. That’s when this poster was born. On the 20th birthday of my baby, I’m going to raise a glass in front of the poster together.
