Work Details

Concept and Intention of the Artwork

I drew a “spiral” starting from the body and breathing. A spiral is a structure inherent in the body, and it is also a movement trajectory that can be felt during movement. This feeling is placed on the paper as a single shape, and parts where ink soaks into Japanese paper and parts that do not soak into the Japanese paper are created. By further copying the shape onto another paper with ink, the shade and bleed of the ink are expanded, and changes beyond intention are brought out. Shapes born from the body develop while responding to the material's independence. It is a work that sees drawing not as a determination of form, but as an opportunity for shapes to continue to be born.

Production Methods and Tools

Ink, gansai pigment, gold clay, and scaffolding on Japanese paper

Ink painter

“Possibility” is something that is latent in the world before all phenomena are determined into a single form. The body leads that possibility to a phenomenon.

Breathing, center of gravity, and movement habits, and the trajectory of a stroke born from it are not made up only of individual will. It is shaped by countless relationships with nature, others, land, time, and culture, and continues to change constantly.

The mediums of ink and Japanese paper delicately reflect the trajectory of such a body. Unconscious movements are applied to the lines emitted with will, respond to the independent nature of ink and Japanese paper, and open up into a phenomenon that exceeds one's own intentions.

For me, nature is the physical feeling of stepping on soil, swimming and diving in rivers, and nurturing in the cycle of the seasons.
They learn from tradition, rethink the body as a place to respond to the world, and continue to question what painting is and how people can relate to the world.
