Work Details

Concept and Intention of the Artwork

This work is a collage of paper that were laid on the floor of the former Gojo Rakuen brothel in Kyoto. The building where the paper was located was demolished last year and disappeared. It is a very special piece of work with a profound sense of history of approximately 173 years.

contemporary artist

My practice explores dynamic equilibrium by viewing all phenomena as a continuum rather than fixed opposites. At its core is the Three Visual Principles: Black & White, Color, and Ma, representing opposition, transition, and the space where differences coexist.

Using paint, ink, resin, metal, earth, wax, glass, and mineral pigments, I work with melting, oxidation, heat, and deposition. I observe how materials transform and interact over time, allowing their behavior to shape the work.

These processes give rise to Awai, a space where differences remain distinct while existing together. Within Awai, equilibrium appears as a temporary state in which no element fully dominates another. It is not static balance, but a dynamic condition sustained through change, tension, and fluctuation.

My works preserve these transient relationships as material fragments of Awai and dynamic equilibrium.
