CARPE DIEM

Through a series of events on an otherwise normal morning, Airi picks up an old photo album at Ailes Postal Company. Within the pages of the book are records of the many trials and tribulations Airi has faced in the past.

Carpe Diem explores Airi Rowatari’s motto, or the concept of “ichigo ichie” (一期一会), a Japanese proverb meaning “one time, one meeting.” Each encounter is serendipitous and special; whether you choose to seize it or not may change the trajectory of your life. Perhaps your encounter now with this little time capsule will be your ichigo ichie…


エール郵便局の何気ない朝、ふとしたことで手に取った過去のアルバム。 そこには過去の鷺渡あいりの姿と葛藤の記録が記されていた。

Carpe Diemは「縁」やその縁から繋がる「機会」を、鷺渡あいりの生きるモットーである「一期一会」を過去の出来事と共に体現した作品です。今こちらをご覧になるのもまたひとつの一期一会、この小さなタイムカプセルの旅お楽しみください。
