Work Details
人の在り方を問う。顔や姿が見えない「誰か」に対し恐怖感や印象のズレを感じ疑問に思う。存在の輪郭は曖昧で空気のように掴みきれない。果たしてそれは本当に存在しているのか、概念なのか、人なのかと。何を基準に人は人を認識し判断するのか。目にする姿、形、気配、不明な存在に情報を与え「誰か」は人として現存できるのか。存在を鮮明にする為に同じ型のモノを対比させる、立ち位置を定かにし、距離を測り、場に置く。私はそれは人が人として在る為に不可欠であると思う。人として立ち、質量があり影がある、そこに差が生まれ重なり場と成る。「在る」事でモノの輪郭が浮かぶだが、明確になった「誰か」は一部が姿を消すと途端に正体不明になり、再度存在の認識を歪ませる。存在の立ち位置を確かめる、それは現代において人で在る為に重要な事である。

Artist
sculptor
Motoki Tanaka was born in 1990 in Tokyo. By eliminating the faces of human figures, anonymity in modern society is symbolized three-dimensionally, and the appearance, atmosphere, and impression of a person is created with the motif of “someone who is nobody.” Faces are like business cards and are an important factor in recognizing and identifying individuals. At the same time, faces are simply personal symbols, and without that symbol, they have a high degree of anonymity. Among them, a wide variety of attire exist to symbolize individuality, and the original appearance is clearly reflected. By eliminating the faces of human figures, anonymity in modern society is symbolized three-dimensionally, and the appearance, atmosphere, and impression of a person is created under the theme of “someone who is nobody.”
