Work Details

Searching for sound channels

There is a deep water area called a sound channel in the deep sea, and it seems that sound reaches a distance of thousands of kilometers at the lowest speed there.

I want to listen to important voices without missing them, even if it takes time. It would be wonderful if my feelings reached someone someday.

Exhibition View

I'm listening closely to places that are far away, and to myself.

By baking the soil itself, which has been touched for a long time, using an unmolded “directmade” technique, it is created with the intention of kneading in and confining thought and time. I think the production process itself is also about “searching for sound channels.”

Production Time

about 3 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.

型を取らない“直作り”の技法で制作しています。長い時間触れ続けた土そのものを、時間の流れや想いまで閉じ込めて焼き上げます。
非効率で完成に時間はかかりますが、この技法も大切なコンセプトのひとつです。
