ハネムシホーム

Born in 1995 in Hokkaido. Graduated from Tokyo University of the Arts, Graduate School of Fine Arts, Department of Sculpture in 2023. Currently enrolled in the doctoral program at the same university. A story is born by confronting trees, and the production process of “carving, dividing, and stacking up trees” is regarded as an act of mourning and regeneration out of interest in nature within people, and figures of people born from there are created by wood carving. Representative works include “me after another,” where you meet your inner self, and “HOKKAIBOKKO,” an eye that looks through everything, “depends on clothing,” which lies between body and mind. Recent works include works such as “Goodbye BOKKO,” which expresses feelings escaping from a single tree.
