    Description

    -Nomura Securities Co., Ltd. Head Office Wealth Management Group AWARD Winner-
    This stool is made of a huge tree, nearly 100 years old, which was hollowed out by hand. It can be used in a variety of ways, such as a stand for displaying houseplants or flower vases, or as a small table for children. When I visited Botswana, I saw traditional African furniture made from a single piece of wood without joints. I was impressed by this approach to woodworking, which is different from the traditional Japanese technique of jointing wood to form a shape, and based on this idea, I wanted to create a piece that utilizes the shape of a huge tree as it is, and this stool was born. The stool is named "khudu" stool, which means "land tortoise" in Botswana, because it looks like a tortoise.

    Concept

    I am interested in the boundary between human society and nature, and use Japanese trees in my work. In my work, I use a combination of motorized tools such as chainsaws and router machines, and traditional woodworking tools such as chisels and chisels to carve out new and smooth forms that are full of life. The works are given relatively long titles, which are mainly words taken from literary works or passages from philosophical books in which the author has already died. The overlap of the age of the sculpted creature and the words of the book from which the title is taken, causes a shift to a new perspective that is not "here and now," and my work reinterprets our problems and their stories.
