Work Details

Using various materials such as acrylic, original printed washi tape, aluminum tape, etc., it is a work created under the theme of “remembering forgotten words.”

In the past, in Japan, there were Japanese clocks where the hands did not move and the dial moved counterclockwise, which was the opposite of Western clocks where the hands moved clockwise.

That clock is the exact opposite of the general perception that time is flowing from the past to the future, and it represents the concept that time is flowing from the future to the past.

This is similar to “perspective memory” described in cognitive psychology, and I found it very interesting.

Based on that concept, it is a work that aims to visualize thought patterns and self-talk within the brain from the viewpoint of how reality would change if we had thrown a wish into the future in advance and decided on the future first.

Yuki Ioroi
✔︎

Born 1980, Shizuoka, Japan. Graduated from Tokyo Asagaya Art College, School of Image Creation in 2007. Started her career in London in 2011 and has exhibited at numerous art fairs and exhibitions in the UK, Tokyo, and the Netherlands. She mainly produces paintings and semi-three-dimensional works based on ‘words/text’. She returned to Japan in 2023 and is currently based in Shizuoka. It is said that humans think about 50,000 thoughts every day, 90% of which are the same as yesterday. Is the world we see through the endlessly repeated thoughts of the unconscious really the truth or reality? With this question as its theme, the work poses a message to the self-perception and manifest consciousness of those who confront it. 1980    Born in Shizuoka,  Japan 2001    Study abroad in L.A for 2 years 2007 Graduated from Tokyo Asagaya Art College, School of Image Creation 2011    Moved to London and started a career as an artist 2013 Back to Japan and held a first solo show in Tokyo 2016 Moved to the Netherlands 2023 Back to Japan, live and work in Shizuoka ​​​ [Award/Prize]
