Profile 

Graduate School of Art and Design, Design Course, Architecture of Musashino Art University in 2010. OHTA grew up in the suburbs of Tokyo in the 80's in an unencumbered environment. Perhaps because of this, he is interested in stereotypical and anonymous scenery. He develops his works in correlation with architecture and scenery. His works include video, photography, sculpture, and installation.

About works / performance

Architecture is a fiction. When OHTA thought about the relationship between architectural models and actual architecture, he felt the models had more substance, and this is the feeling that began to emerge. The scenery is a collection of such fictions. His surroundings were filled with such sceneries. Material scenery. Scenery as society. Scenery as a symbol. What does scenery represent? It is very difficult to relate to the fictional scenery, and in some cases it may just break through a kind of the cinema screen and go out the back side. But then he will look at the scenery on the back side and observe it.
