AL
穴を掘っていると、地面の中、地球の中身に興味が湧き、洞窟巡りをしていたら、スペインでクリスタルの洞窟を発見したのだ。
この透き通りながらも力強い世界観を感じ、一瞬で全てを思い出したような気がしたという。そこから彼女はメキシコ、スリランカへ渡り、自らの足でユニークな鉱物を探し始め、母国日本で制作したのである。この全ての過程で、湧き出てきた神聖とも言えるインスピレーションと創造性を、今回このALシリーズに昇華させた。このシリーズの鉱物の土台は3Dプリントで、それぞれの鉱物にぴったりの設計になっており、世界トップクラスのマットブラックである、黒色無双で塗装されている。
彼女が石を運んでいるが、彼女が石に運ばれたようだ。
人生って面白いね。
She, who keeps digging holes, says that she is creating the air that forms inside the holes. At first glance, the work appears to be a hole, but she is creating the space inside. Looking back, she has been exploring something like true nothingness, symbolized by a black hole, since she was a child. Digging holes has made her curious about the inside of the ground, the contents of the earth,
and while touring caves, she discovered a crystal cave in Spain. She says she felt this transparent yet powerful view of the world and instantly remembered everything. From there, she traveled to Mexico, Sri Lanka, San Francisco, and Costa Rica. where she began to search for unique minerals on her own, and created them in her native Japan. The divine inspiration and creativity that bubbled up from all of this process was sublimated into this AL series. The mineral base of this series is 3D printed, designed to fit each mineral perfectly, and painted in Kokusyoku-Muso, a world-class matte black. She carries the stone, but it seems that she was carried by the stone.
Life is interesting.
