When
I told that there wasn't money, but there was a lot of time,
I decided to be with the uncle, as the woman said,
"Oh,
let's get along with this person, it's close."
The
town of Kanda, which still has the taste of downtown,
went on like a horse drawn by a horseshoe after people
who were as old as my father.

How
much mass can you create a space from a thin material such as paper?
The artist who is fighting this problem announced a powerful work full of force.
Using kraft paper as a support, magazines are stacked on four layers,
five layers and the front and back, glued, and countless fasteners are embedded on the entire surface.
As the work continued while lying on the ground, soil grains, stones and pieces of wood
adhered to the surface, and an unexpected Machere was born.
The irregular holes cut into the screen imply the thickness of the space created by the materials.
The hidden back side shows up in another two-dimensional work made by
laminating twenty four sheets of Japanese paper transferred with blue pigment.
The similarities and differences between the front and the back
also make it possible to convey the expansion of the space vividly.
There are also curved semi-solids that use wood together.
