fragmented memories

作品を描くときに対象となる風景を写真におさめ、その景色そのものを描くのではなく、反覆するイメージから不定形な新たな輪郭を描いていく。その平面の地は、色彩やメディウムの構成に置き換えられることで物質感を失いながら、記憶の断片のようなモチーフをつくりあげていく。樹脂塗料、カシューを用いたその平面の質感も含めて、独特な平面作品を構成している。

Missed taking pictures of scenery when the draw for which the work itself did not draw the landscape, we delineate a new images from irregular repetition. Land the plane, while losing a sense of substance in the medium to be replaced with colors and configurations, such as the motif will Tsukuriage fragment of memory. Resin paint, textures, including the plane using cashew pieces that make up a unique plane.

You Who Never Arrived

You who never arrived
in my arms, Beloved, who were lost
from the start,
I don't even know what songs
would please you. I have given up trying
to recognize you in the surging wave of
the next moment. All the immense
images in me -- the far-off, deeply-felt landscape,
cities, towers, and bridges, and un-
suspected turns in the path,
and those powerful lands that were once
pulsing with the life of the gods--
all rise within me to mean
you, who forever elude me.

You, Beloved, who are all
the gardens I have ever gazed at,
longing. An open window
in a country house-- , and you almost
stepped out, pensive, to meet me. Streets that I chanced
upon,--
you had just walked down them and vanished.
And sometimes, in a shop, the mirrors
were still dizzy with your presence and, startled, gave back
my too-sudden image. Who knows? Perhaps the same
bird echoed through both of us
yesterday, separate, in the evening...

The Kaleidoscope Cabinet features simple construction; oak plywood, mirrors and hardened-glass, which achieves "a striking visual effect and a unique manner of displaying the exhibited jewelry pieces".

For a princess

"Circlet or Diadem of a[n unknown Egyptian] queen or a princess, electrum. H. (of stag's head) 8.5 cm. From Salhiya in the Eastern Delta. (near Avaris) Now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, Registration No.68.136.1."

"This unique crown, consisting of a band of electrum 1.5 cm wide perforated to take tie-strings at the rear and mounted with rosettes and animals heads, appears to have been made in Egypt largely under Asiatic inspiration, if it is not an Asiatic import. In the 18th Dynasty, it became the fashion to decorate the diadems of princesses and lesser queens with the figure of a gazelle's head in place of the uraeus or vulture of principal queens. This crown with its four gazelle heads may have been part of the trousseau of a foreign princess sent as a bride for one of the [Ancient Egyptian] Pharaohs according to the [international] diplomacy of the age." (Cyril Aldred. Jewels of the Pharaohs. ed. Thames & Hudson Ltd. London: 1978)

So beautiful.

Luigi Russolo

One of the first explorer of what we know as sound art today. 
"At first the art of music sought purity, limpidity and sweetness of sound. Then different sounds were amalgamated, care being taken, however, to caress the ear with gentle harmonies. Today music, as it becomes continually more complicated, strives to amalgamate the most dissonant, strange and harsh sounds. In this way we come ever closer to noise-sound.<sup>"

word of advice

"Start showing immediately. Don't wait around, your work will never be good enough to show. you will always criticize your work. It's a life process."
art teacher
her words hit the jackpot. I always think that I should only show my works when I become super skilled, you know "oneday". But it should be now even if it's sloppy, vague and confusing. I shouldn't be afraid of what I create. So I decided to start a quick sketch tumbler, 10-15min each. It will be daily -ideally. ha. right now it's impossible cos of assignments but I will start showing. NOW

Cindy Sherman

  her colleage project Doll House

A Cindy Book, c. 1964-1975
 

A Cindy Book is an apparently typical adolescent photograph album: a
sacred record of its creator's most important "life moments." The difference
is that what seems to matter most is not the moment itself, but the subject's
own image in the photograph. That’s me, says the recurrent handwritten
inscription: at different ages, on holiday in Maine, at my cousin's wedding, at
my first dance, etc. As if Sherman ("the subject") took perpetual delight in
spotting herself amongst a group of other people, overjoyed by the fact of
her own existence, the diverse situations in which she finds herself, and the
plasticity of her being, allied to the continuity of a specific identity. ..
