もう何十年も前のことだが、ナチの強制収容所にいた子どもたちが鉛筆で描き残した落書きのようなものをテレビで観たことがあった。これが子どもの描く絵か?ー思わず息を飲みそうな虚無感な顔だらけだった。線描とは脳と指先がじかにつながっている表現形式にほかならない。自然ないし世界との接点そのものであり、また状況を映し出し、刻印する道具である。
金澤恵美子が墨一色で繰り広げる線描の世界は、夢と希望ーそのヒリヒリするような切迫感、直接性で私の胸を打つのだ。
テキスト/本江邦夫

Some decades ago, I watched a TV program introducing rough sketches in pencil drawn by children, alas, captured in a Nazi concentration camp. At first sight of them, I was so shocked that I caught my breath. Were they really drawn by children? So many faces everywhere, so vacant and hopeless. Line drawing is definitely a way of expression through the direct link between brain and finger tips. It should be a kind of tool to provide contact points to nature or to the world, to reflect and engrave what is happening there.

Deep in sumi, the drawing world of Emiko Kanazawa with her dream and hope, so urgent and immediate, is so poignant to me.
