Purpose of the residency

In recent years, my Skin series has focused on my relationship with the world around me. So far, the closest other element has been the “mountain,” influenced by my upbringing in Nagano and my current life in Yamagata. But what about the more immediate presence of “people”? In the vibrant, bustling environment of Tokyo, I want to explore what experiences can be found and what “urban skin” might look like through my work.

Plan during the residency
  • Conduct research in the city center using methods such as photography and drawing.
  • Use GPS to track the terrain while walking around Tokyo.
  • Create flat artworks based on photos and drawings.
  • Produce artworks by performing 3D modeling based on GPS data.
