Purpose of the residency
I have been working based on small questions of my own daily life. Therefore, I have been also conscious of the relationship between myself and viewers anytime if I exhibit my works. But I am conflicted about my current situation because art spaces are often far removed from my theme or my work area. I think the environment of the residence is the opportunity where I can exhibit my sincere idea about my creating to viewers more direct than usual, this is why I felt the necessity to participate in this program to develop my expression. There is a high expectation for this program, where creating relates closely with daily life, that will bring proper developments for this research.
Plan during the residency
I'm planing to work, that there are three types; what I document and continue every day during my stay, what is involved in street happenings or others, what can exist not at any site but only in the studio. I work researches and experimental studies at once, document the working process and set out to exhibit them at the end of the program. My Study is mainly field work and it becomes a focus of activity for a half staying or more. And as I'm planing a collaboration-work, I see I spend relatively much time to find collaborators.
