The subject of this work is the photograph of Masahisa Fukase.
I have depicted animal faces from my point of view. However, this time, I depicted the animal faces from Fukase's point of view, that is, the "other's point of view itself."
Fukase's (another person's) point of view is, needless to say, an independent concept in which I cannot intervene. What he sees is himself, and the motifs he captures represent himself.
*For more information on Masahisa Fukase, please see Statements.

東京藝術大学大学院美術研究科修了 ペインターとして絵画を制作し、国内外で展覧会を多数開催。 To see is to be seen, and to be seen is the only way to see. ” The existence of animals is the most familiar metaphor that humans have used since ancient times. People often compare themselves to animals. Starting with the wall paintings in Lascaux Cave, animals are used for characters and figurative expression in everyday conversation. For instance, we say "That guy looks like a monkey.” I think that by using animals to represent people, we can express a wider range of humanity. At the same time, I do not create paintings as objects to be viewed, but rather as "paintings that gaze at viewers," both substantively and psychologically. By the act of appreciation (gazing) by the viewer, the viewer is "gazed at" by the painting. At that moment, there is a mental repetitive movement occuring between the viewer and the painting. That is how the existence of the painting becomes something that everyone can share. At the same time, it becomes an anonymous and universal existence that reflects the individuality of the viewer — “a mirror to know himself”. We can be gazed at by seeing, and we only can see by being gazed at. I think that “what I see in the mirror” is what I really want to know and what I am searching for.
