Watching too much Netflix showed me how different my real life is from the screen.

There are three things that always irritate me when I watch movies and dramas.
The first, when she comes back home after a long day at work and her husband is waiting for her with a prepared meal and a “Good job!” He smiles and offers her a glass of wine without pausing.
The second is the wise and kind husband who, as soon as he gets into bed, gives a sincere, yet witty response to his wife as she describes her troubles at work.
And finally, the third scene, as soon as she opens a gift from her husband, she says, “Oh my God, it’s too good to be true!” She then hugs his neck in a frenzy.
“This is never going to happen!”, I mutter to myself as I shake my head repeatedly whenever one of the above scenes appear.
But I’m so used to being glued to a Netflix drama while pouring cheap wine down the cold, hardened pizza from the delivery service, and to a partner who sleeps with a sloppy big mouth with a jet-grade roaring snore, that I’ve become so accustomed to my own self, far removed from that kind of sexiness rather than resignation. In fact, I’m even attached to this way of life. Yes, this is the reality.
The only thing I can’t seem to give up is the presents.
I would be roundly criticized by Christians if I said that Christmas in particular is one of the biggest disappointments of the year, but I wonder how many of us grit our teeth and endure the sudden loss of anticipation as soon as we open our presents.
Today I would like to introduce a gift that I can loudly recommend to you.
Go Segawa’s small object is a gift that no art lover would want to miss.
It appears to be just an envelope containing a card, but when you open the envelope, a brightly colored polyester board is revealed inside.
As you carefully open it, “Oh, my goodness!”: a three-dimensional, foldable sculpture is inside.
“So, the only Christmas present I’m getting this year is a card!” It’s the kind of gift that lowers the expectation of the recipient, and then blows their mind.

His three-dimensional objects are fascinating in their wonder and perfection, as if the spheres and cubes really do seem to be floating in the air.
On Christmas Day, “I didn’t know you had such an aesthetic sense!” I can already see the affectionate look you are giving me as you look at me with your partner’s eyes. Forgive me for being a saleswoman, but in fact, Go Segawa’s works are not available on the internet. If you are interested in these works, please contact Micheko gallery for more information.
