I aimed to create a work that can be enjoyed as a painting by making use of the quality and technique of pottery.

I would be glad if you could enjoy watching it slowly.

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

There are various construction methods for making things.

Among them, multilayering, which is made by stacking thin materials and bonding, is a versatile construction method that can be applied to all kinds of materials such as paper, wood, metal, etc.

In this work, I thought about what kind of visual effects can be obtained when the patterns and shapes that were conventionally used as flat decorations were changed three-dimensionally using the additive structure, and whether it could create modeling fun, and explored further possibilities for patterns.

The encounter with skateboarding made me realize a lot of things.

There is a technique of playing a board called Ollie (Oley) and jumping.

Try-and-error attempts to cross obstacles in Oley are similar to the barriers that stand on us in our lives.

I wrote the motif of what I had felt, what I wanted to cross, what I couldn't cross, etc., and actually took on the challenge of crossing at Oley.

However, as I went over, I realized that crossing was not such a simple matter, and that reality was more complicated and contradictory.

This work is a record of the contradictory world and the challenge of transcending self.
