Abstract

This study investigates appreciation as an essential theme of Fukumi Shimura, developed through dyeing plants and trees, following the idea of the daily concept being shaken, using Japanese language teaching materials. Furthermore, how the viewer and the creator’s physicality overlap are examined. I also explored these topics using the theory of Sumio Hamada and N. Hartmann, which derive from Saimaru (2020). A comparison of Shimura’s writing to Hartmann’s multilayer, an awareness of the inner spiritual layer was found, and the world’s showed expansion and contact on the occasion of Shimura’s nature experiences. The meaning of the expression “black cherry blossom skin” was understood as skin dyed pink, which students could not follow in the context of their Japanese language class combined with art class. Here also the phrases “not only pink” and “the branches are filled with various colors” were encountered. In the practice for correspondence high schools, even his negative experiences, such as seclusion, could take the form of mental homogeneity, which is linked to Shimura’s essential theme, which led to the point of view that changed the meaning of his experience.
