Yes, everything slipped away on me." 2024 350(W)㎜×350(D)㎜×505(H)㎜ Camphor tree, synthetic resin, vegetable oil ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ This work is created with the image of life forms that will appear on this earth in the not so distant future. This is a work from the Post-Antropocene series. Lekoa (lekgoa) means "gentile" in the African language. The title of this work is taken from a line in the text of Albert Camus' novel "The Fall" published in 1956. The tree is carved directly from the log at the point where the tree has just begun to split in two, so there are two centers of the tree. The fusion of the wood grains as if they were melded together is also an attractive feature of this work.
