Work Details
Marine snow falls at the bottom of the ocean, and the sea is at night when the meteor shower is at its peak. The happiness of sleeping well in silence and beauty without a single worry.
I hope everyone has such moments.
The sofa has octopus legs.
This work was created in the wake of an exhibition in an area affected by the earthquake.
Not limited to the disaster, I'm sure everyone has an indelible sense of sadness and anxiety. It contains a strong desire for everyone in the world to have a deep and peaceful sleep that completely frees them from them.
I have an image of sleep sinking, and it's a peaceful world that sinks deeply and deeper than the ground.
Brass wire is embedded in the legs of the sofa and firmly fixed to the pedestal so that it does not move even if it shakes.

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.

⼦供の頃、閉じられた本の中で起きていることを空想しました。
物語のその後
書庫の隅で拾った焦燥
形のないもやりとしたものは今も傍にあり、私は視野の端で焦がれています。
テラコッタとは素焼きの⼟のことで、陶器と呼ぶには不完全な状態です。
柔く暖かく乾いたその在り様は⾵化してゆく空想ととてもよく似ています。
私にとって制作は願い事であり、思い出せない記憶を⼿繰り寄せるようなこと。
いつかの⼼象⾵景に現在を重ね輪郭を与える作業です。
陶土を素焼きしたテラコッタです。
型取りをしない「直作り」の技法を用い、長い時間触れ合った土そのものを焼き上げることで制作した時間も作品の中に閉じ込めています。
火の中に入れる事で素材は硬化し粘土の柔軟性は失われますが、美しい色と滑らかさが生まれます。それは死のようでも生のようでもあり、決して戻らない時の流れのようでもあります。
私にとって焼成は単なる工程ではなく、とても大切なコンセプトで作品の一部です。
