Work Details
私は現実ではありえない不可思議な世界を描いていますが、それは現実からの延長線上にあるものであり、決してこの世界と剥離したものではありません。そのため荒唐無稽な状況を作品内で設定しながらも、細部のモチーフに説得力と現実感を持たせることが重要であると考えています。
本作は、2021年より参加した「ないじぇる芸術共創ラボ」のレジデンスを機に古典籍『西山物語』を紐解き、「かへ」という登場人物に焦点を当て構成した作品です。
『西山物語』では次々と怪異が起きます。首が糸のようにしなる女や、楠木正成の霊が現れ、家中を跋扈しますが、主人公七郎は平然としています。襖には殺されたかへの物語を画中画として描きました。
