    Description

    How to display: It can be hung on the wall freely, or it can be fished with a tegus to rotate in the wind. (It is galvanized so it will not rust easily when exposed to rain, but we recommend displaying it under a roof.) (The galvanized wire is rust-resistant, but it is recommended to be displayed under the roof. In particular, objects that have been used for a long time are thought to be "inhabited by gods. In recent years, this idea has faded away and a disposable culture has entered the country, but the idea of cherishing and respecting old things still remains. This time, I would like to give "objects as tools" that we have spent so many years with a "general recognizable presence. I have been thinking about "the beauty of a single line" for many years. Therefore, I express "beauty" with as few lines as possible. I want to draw a beautiful line, so I want to use "a wire that has served its purpose after years of use in the field" and turn it into something that moves me as beauty. This theme began when I saw a piece of "wire" that was about to be thrown away in my garage and thought, "What a waste of a beautiful rusted look," and revived it as a portrait. Since the "wire" is beginning to rust, it will probably decay again with the passage of time. However, we believe that this is not an "overly fast wave" as in modern society, but rather it will fulfill its life with a leisurely time that is invisible to our eyes (we will make efforts to stop the weathering, but it is also a reality that they will never stop).

  • About this artist

    Concept

    In creating a work of art, the first premise is to "feel something," but what is that "something"? It is "feeling," "line," and "space," and I express my own answer with visuals.

    The strong Japanese cultural elements in my work are largely due to the environment in which I was raised. I have been fascinated by Japanese gardens since I was 13 years old, and studied them as a research subject at university. In my work, I project my thoughts on the relationship between people and the natural beauty of Japanese gardens, as well as "spatial beauty" and "ma" (space).
