Chairs and desks, from ancient times

They're not far away,

Anytime and anywhere.

It symbolizes permanent "love".

Sohososei (Sohososei: helping each other and developing each other)

The desk is a desk, and the chair is a chair.

Without a chair, it's not a desk.

If you don't have a desk, it's not a chair.

The desk can be a chair, and the chair can be a desk.

If there is no relationship, it will not be possible.

I felt as if it were embodying the relationship between the couple.

Spend time with my wife during the self-restraint period

I created a different relationship and sense of distance than usual.

To lead a more happy daily life

A design that embodies the relationship between the couple

I thought I could express it with a chair and a desk.

Actively discover how to sit from each value, without limiting how to sit.

To a happy married life like a chair and a desk.

(The image at the beginning is also this work.)

A series of lighting that cuts out beautiful and robust scenery of nature.

If we humans think about nature, it feels like a harsh and harsh extraordinary life.

But for them, it is everyday, and the environment in which we live is extraordinary.

If we incorporated a part of their daily lives into our daily lives, people's lives may change a little bit.

In exploring contemporary expression of dyeing, I thought about creating a scene along with a form in this work.

One day, when I was walking along a path where the sunbeams fell, beautiful light casts shadows on me, and I realized that I was one of this beautiful world, and I came from the experience of wanting to reflect the world.

This beautiful world is made up of the ground, objects and light, cast shadows by light hitting objects, and the presence of the ground shows that it exists here. I thought that the shadows of objects could be represented by trees, clouds, and glaze.

As we introduced on April 15, this gallery is next to the "Statue of Noritsugu Hayakawa, the father of the subway."

For this reason, on the remaining three pages, three works per opportunity are exhibited.

The so-called subway passage in the concourse of Tokyo Metro Ginza Station.

It seems to be conspicuous and may be hard to notice.

・・・ A museum that is hard to go to despite the extension of declaration of a state of emergency in Tokyo.

How about watching art in a passing style?

Ginza Station on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line, Marunouchi Line, Hibiya Line

Near the entrances B7 and B8 underground concourses
