機能と鑑賞をテーマに、金属ならではの表現方法を用いて制作しています。

 

[About Flat dish having spikes]

I used to make containers which focused on “practical use”. As I have experienced

various kinds of works, I have started wondering if the reasons and thoughts for

my production work are being expressed directly from my heart. When I come to think

of my past works, I must admit that the works made without caring their technical

purposes or concepts would express my individuality much better. I had a feeling of

inferiority that I always thought about the functional matters about containers and

was not able to create what I really wanted. I then started stepping away from my

production work. To get rid of such background, I have decided to release my feelings

and thoughts and to express myself with the theme of rejecting the functions as

a container. The works focus on formative elements more than on their functions.

I state “the form created from rejection” as I target to produce something which rejects its practical

use as a container. The surfaces of the dishes have sulfurization coloring. The overcrowded spikes are

made by a chisel which represent the time-flow and process of my ideas about containers.

 Feeling of danger is expressed both with the senses of vision and touch which is against the original

function of a container to contain something. I would appreciate it if it would make difference

between its function and presentation and become an opportunity to recognize the reality.
