Every time the destruction caused by air strikes,
massacres, famines, and the production and testing
of nuclear weapons are repeated, the word “concern''
is repeated, although it is not clear who said it, about
these acts, situations, and conditions. And It also
frequently appears in criticisms on various domestic
issues.
"Concern" means “anxiety.” It also means "worry."
Every time I hear or see this word used in response
to the situation described above, I feel something
strange about it. This is because this is not
something that can be dismissed as a "concern." I
wondered why such a dangerous situation for so
many innocent people could be dismissed with
those words. No, what is currently happening around
the world is a crisis for all humanity. However, the
reason we dismiss the issue with the word "concern"
is because we view the situation based on political
considerations. They don't see it as a human
problem. No, they don't think of it as a human
problem.
On March 17, 2023, the International Criminal
Court issued an arrest warrant for the Russian
President on suspicion of crimes related to the
invasion of Ukraine. In addition, on May 20, 2024, the
International Criminal Court recuested arrest
warrants for five senior leaders of both Hamas and
Israel for serious violations of connection with Israel's
attacks on the Gaza Strip, an Palestinian-controlled
area carried out by Israel in retaliation for attacks by
Hamas in Israel. There have been mixed reactions
from various countries to this request for arrest
warrants. And while there are serious doubts as to
whether this warrant will have any enforcement
power, but at least I sense a new way of thinking
that goes a step further from the aforementioned
"concerns."
The other day, a poster that I created and posted
on the Internet appealing for opposition to war and
freedom of speech was criticized by people involved
in journalism, saying that the poster was making a
"new appeal.'' They guessed it right about my works,
..My point may not be immediately understood.
However, while it is absolutely necessary to discuss
each issue in detail, not only on major international
issues but also on domestic social issues. on the
other hand, by focusing on each issue from start to
finish, we are able to reduce the pure existence of
"human beings" to urgent issues. We might leave it
outside.
I will appeal to this point along with various issues.
And I don't think that's a small word. I think that's all I can do.
I was wondering how to visualize a situation that is
dismissed with the word "concern"... Most images
have a dual nature, just as war paintings that
advocate anti-war sentiment also aing the praises
of fighting sprit.
