Hanafusa’s “process paintings,” which represent a profound evolution from the artist’s earlier minimalist period, embody a mystical visual language rooted in his ecosophic worldview – a philosophy of ecological harmony or equilibrium. Concepts such as time, materiality, and process are foregrounded through the use of custom-made silver or golden aluminum paint, Hanafusa’s preferred material. Central to Hanafusa’s philosophy is the notion of uchuiden, the shared, latent memories of the cosmos that interconnect all human beings. This concept serves as the spiritual foundation of his Cosmic Inherent Memory (Uchuiden Kioku) series. Hanafusa articulates this concept with the following statement: “I didn’t do the work; Nature did it,” highlighting his collaborative approach with nature. At the methodological level, Hanafusa borrows nature’s power to express his unique understanding of materiality. In this series, water- and oil-based aluminum paints were brushed on the canvas and left to stratify under gravity. The paints flow and converge, drying with traces of bubbles and wrinkles on the canvas. This process-oriented method underscores the boundless possibilities in time and space, bridging the visible and invisible, the material and the spiritual, and reflecting his belief in the interconnectedness of all existence through the interplay of time and materiality.

花房寿夫的该系列作品代表着艺术家早期极简主义时期深刻的演变，表现了一种基于生态平衡哲学的神秘视觉语言。通过使用艺术家自己调配的银色或金色铝漆，时间、物质性和过程等概念得到了突出体现。花房哲学的核心概念是“宇宙记忆”（Uchuiden），即所有人类相互连接的共同潜在记忆。这一概念构成了他《宇宙遗传记忆》（Uchuiden Kioku）系列的精神基础。花房用以下这句话表达了这一概念：“作品不是我完成的，是自然完成的”，强调了他与自然的合作关系。在方法论层面，花房借用自然的力量来表达他对物质性的独特理解。在这一系列作品中，水性和油性铝漆被刷在画布上，并在重力作用下自然分层。颜料缓缓流动汇聚，干燥后在画布上留下气泡和褶皱的痕迹。这种以过程为导向的方法强调了时间和空间的无限可能性，连接了可见与不可见、物质上的与精神上的，并通过时间和物质性的相互作用反映了他对万物互联的信念。
