大量に敷き詰められた陶磁素材のりんごは、付着する異物のような粒によって本来の姿を変え異質と化す。成熟化し続ける現代の消費構造において、大量に存在すること、そのために人類の行為が必要とされる矛盾。豊かさと充実の中に、空虚さや脆さ、恐怖感を抱く時。日常は非日常となり、それでも世界が回っている錯覚の中にいる。 過去によって成り立つ今。私の扱う土という素材も人類の進化の中に必ず存在した。その進化の過程の中で生まれた課題と素材が交差し、今確かに此処に存在している。
Apples made from a large quantity of layered ceramic were transformed by foreign material adhering to them, turning them into something different. The ever-maturing structure of modern consumption is characterized by a large-scale contradiction, which must be resolved through human action. It is a time of emptiness, fragility, and fear in the midst of abundance and fulfillment. The everyday becomes extraordinary, yet we are under the illusion that the world is still turning. The present is made up of the past. The material I used, soil, has always existed in human history. The issues and materials that arose in the process of evolution intersected and exist here today.
