Work Details

Fukumoto-ke House, ”Gakuenmae Art Festa”, 2022, the former Fukumoto-me House, Nara

CONCEPT

For the occasion of exhibiting at the Gakuenmae Art Festa in Nara, I chose the motif from the scenery seen through the windows of the Japanese room in the former Fukumoto-ke house, which I was asked to exhibit. This 50 to 60 year old Japanese room was filled with rectangular patterns on screen doors, glass windows, and sliding doors. I thought rhythmic “squares” of different sizes had made it a very interesting space. I felt it would be a great space to exhibit square canvases.

I decided to display two sets of large and small square pieces, which were based on the “large rectangle” and the “small rectangle” of screen doors and glass windows to show the difference in resolution of your views. Unexpectedly, due to the effects of the COVID-19, the Gakuenmae Art Festa was postponed for 2 years, so I decided to make the landscape of the first preview in March 2021 be painted into a large rectangular works, and the landscape of the second preview in August 2022 into a small rectangular works.

I use the recent style of making triptychs (mix) (paint) (depict), with processing the photos into mosaics in digital way and painting the extracted colours by analogue.

Fine artist who pursues the boundary.

I paint extremely abstracted ‘landscape painting', focusing only on the single point of ‘extracting colour from the landscape’. This is a work that raises questions about the way we view landscapes in today's IT-enabled society, and aims to provide an opportunity to realise the essence of ‘landscapes’, which can now be easily recorded and viewed by anyone, while moving between the boundaries of real and abstract, analogue and digital.
