A Big Fish
Visited “The Arrival” by Rose Borchovski. Rose is a famous artist known as a creator of many 3D arts as “Two Fish” and “The Inevitability of Fate”. .

The below is a part of a note card by the artist.
----------
“I grew up in a small village on the edge of the sea. Once every few years a big fish (small whale) would strand itself on our beach. And that was an enormous event: THE ARRIVAL, this giant big fish lying on the beach, its weight made it impossible to breathe, longing for the water, overheated by its own fat, trapped in the sand, slippery and smelly. We would climb all over it, standing on top of its belly, poking it with sticks, jumping up and down for pictures, while the whale was slowly dying under our feet. The beach would turn into a fancy fair, good business for local kibbling (warm fish) and hot chocolate sellers.
When the fish was finally dead, there was a grand finale. Men with big boots, shiny yellow raincoats and sharp knives would chop the bubbling and the now very smelly fish up into pieces. Looking at it made our hair smell for weeks.
As a child this left a huge impression on me. Why were we not able to carry the fish back into the sea? I wondered if we were to blame.”
----------
The main character Susa Bubble is a child who faced another self every time when she woke up, and resembles Lot who strayed away from the mother in the midst of the war and flew away with a bird. I was struck by a sense of familiarity by being reunited. This time it is easy on the eye to see her who is enjoying happily although there is some concern at the back of her mind.
Innocent delight and sense of awe toward the huge unknown. Always the expressions made by Rose are wonderful.
By removing the child putting on a blindfold, it was found that the folded child was closing eyes rightly. This stage is “Falling” and the folded child is standing on the edge of the stage.
There are many stages along the back of the huge fish. All stages have names beginning with F like fish. This is “Fortune”. The child with a hat could be a fortune teller. These two children are facing each other, but I derendered one by one and replaced them with me.
Counterattack by the fish? This stage is “Food”. There are many pose balls with tear drop shape. When sitting on this ball, a fish comes out and snaps at you.
Are they wondering if it is OK to cook a fish that is still alive?
Final stage. Within view of others, the fish flies into the sky. There are more stages where you can see piggies, penguins, and eyeballs those have been familiar characters in Rose’s arts. This art will be presented until end of April. Please do not miss it!
The followings are my past articles of Rose’s art.
