BLAUFILM

This film was crafted by hand using 16mm blank film (100m), transparent silicone, and blue pigment (Prussian-Paris blue), without the use of a camera. It consists of 14,000 continuous blue frames without any cuts. The essence of this work lies in the continuity of emotion and sensation conveyed through the color blue—a profoundly spiritual hue. Harada reveals its emotional significance, demonstrating that the deeper the blue, the more it stirs a longing for the eternal. In this film, you can see it poignantly scattered throughout, sometimes as part of a distant backdrop, and often as the outline of a mysterious mountain village.
