Planet
2013
Art Center Ongoing, Tokyo, JAPAN
Installation
Installation. Solo exhibition "PLANET". A sloped decorative gypsum boards ceiling with some recessed lights across the exhibition space is installed. Thirteen photos are also installed in the space: Construction workers trying to move the elements of ordinary streets such as ornamental trees or bicycles, a couples of the balls illuminated by the street lights on the residential street at midnight. This is an approach to see the details (reality in front of you) from the position far away (the planet) by the actions of some tasks. In the space as if it were upside down, a photo of real maintenance workers working and photos of the artist pretending maintenance workers doing tasks with no purpose are mixed and displayed. In the space with a mix of meaning and meaninglessness and without gravity, the maintenance workers touch the things as they are in the all-too-common sights surrounding us.
Thirteen photos, decorative gypsum board, fluorescent lights, light stands, wood, plywood, etc.
