主要作品

A Thousand Faces of the Moon

📍 On the rooftop of Higashikitazawa Station (Outside the ticket gates)

Although there is only one moon, the side visible to us—and the patterns we see—differ depending on the region. Beyond that, I felt that the moon might take on a different significance depending on the viewer's circumstances, environment, or timing; this inspired me to create a wide variety of moons.

Additionally, the moon signage made with reflective material emits a special glow when viewed from the angle where light is directed at it. It is only natural for people to hold diverse perceptions and values ​​regarding a single object, and I hope this project prompts the question: how do we enjoy that situation? During the exhibition, I will also host a silkscreen printing workshop featuring moon motifs. Silkscreening allows participants to take their own moon home, and I believe the process pairs well with the character of this neighborhood, known for its vintage clothing shops.

Additionally, a video piece linked to this work is being screened at the entrance of MUSTARD HOTEL Shimokitazawa, located near the venue. We hope you will enjoy it as well when you visit.
