Work Details

People coming out in the future, books, experiences, failures, and all kinds of things will pile up, and little by little, they should bring you closer to the future you look at. I made a wish that would happen.

Exhibition View

It is terracotta made of unglazed clay.

Using a technique called “direct manufacturing,” which does not involve molding or mass production, the time created is also confined to the work by baking the soil itself that has been touched for a long time.

The changes caused by fire are not simply technical; they have a deep meaning for me as a moment when materials and processes intersect and are sublimated into something new.

Production period

4 months

When I was a kid, I fantasized about what was happening in a closed book.

After the story
/Burniness picked up in the corner of the library

Things that are formless but useful are still with me, and sometimes they become small lights, flexible bags, and sturdy shoes, giving me a little strength to face and understand reality.
Terracotta is unglazed clay, and it is in an imperfect state to be called pottery.
Its soft, warm, and dry appearance is very similar to a weathering fantasy.
For me, production is like throwing away memories I can't remember. It is the task of superimposing the present on a someday imaginary landscape and giving it an outline.

型取りをしない「直作り」という技法で一点ものの制作を続けています。非効率ではありますがこの技法に表現として大きな意味を感じています。
