Purpose of the residency

Carry out more in-depth conduct into the aesthetic superiority of Japanese particular point of traditional architecture and its approach to space into a contemporary space. In addition, I will consider the extent to artists' actions realistically and empirically in response to the social change and how their function has changed. Furthermore by using references of those I will try to create a experimental proto type of work (a public monument) in the open air as a result. That will become the key motifs around which my research is structured and will form a fruitful connection to my next project.

Plan during the residency

1.To conduct an inquiry on a change in the role and social function of 'Square' 'Park' 'Space' as an open space - focusing on circumambiency, hybridity and ambilaterality. / 2.Tokonoma, Fusuma, Shouji - Three particular points on Traditional house(oriented light transformations altered on traditional space of architecture and design) Which will become the key motifs around which my conduct is structured.
With reference of those, I intend to examine the subject with diverse perspective. The alteration of social function of space in relation to the shift in architectural style and design has changed along with the social transformations of society over the course of countless years. Thus, it could be possible to get the particular reference of the cultural and social issues of contemporary time by measuring the historical background of traditional architect art scene and its accumulated experiences in Japan.
