evanescence #45

Description

Evanescence refers to the quality or state of being fleeting, transitory, or ephemeral. It describes something that is characterized by its tendency to disappear, fade away, or vanish quickly. The term is often used in a metaphorical sense to describe intangible things such as emotions, memories, or sensations that are temporary and elusive in nature. It can also be associated with the concept of impermanence, emphasizing the transient and impermanent nature of existence. In Japanese, there is a similar term 'Hakanasa' (儚さ) which also includes nuances of fragility and nostalgia as well. While the English word 'evanescence' may not be very commonly used, this concept is frequently heard in Japanese and holds a subtle yet deeply rooted place in the Japanese psyche, and what is interesting is the fact that the Japanese find beauty in what is evanescent. I had a conversation with a friend visiting Japan while we were going around seeing cherry blossoms about this idea of seeing or finding the beauty in, even appreciating, what is evanescent, and this work has been on my mind since then and I'm happy I am finally able to get it out there. It is animated, but the changes are gradual and it takes some time to reach what will be displayed as the final output. Please just let the animation run in the background and passively enjoy the gradual change. Made with p5.js, with love.
