NameJP:: 見え隠り

From Toyama-san, みえかくり means to see and be hidden simultaneously. This describes a number of things in Japanese aesthetics:

  • Walking through a Japanese garden
  • Viewing dougu, especially in a low-lit room with light coming from a side window
  • …more things…

You cannot see everything all at once. You need to explore the space to see all of it, but from no single point can you see everything.
