| Concept | この作品が出品された第5回現代日本彫刻展はテーマを「形と色」として催された。しかし、素材にはそれぞれの固有の色があり、素材を駆使する彫刻家にとって色はあってなきがごときものだったろう。会場はわざわざ色を塗るといった作品は少なく、それぞれに苦心の跡が見えた。正方形のアクリル板を数十枚張り合わせ、その透明な直方体を透して球体が浮いて見えるように作者は工夫した。 The 5th Contemporary Japanese Sculpture Exhibition, in which the piece was an entry, invited works under the theme of “shape and color”. However, because each material has their natural shade, most sculptors, who are experts in extracting materials’ inherent characteristics, have so far paid no meticulous attention to colors. Each entry therefore showed signs of elaboration, while only few works actually had painted surfaces. This piece, a transparent cube made of several dozens of square acrylic plates, creates a visual effect in which a floating orb is visible through the transparent cube. |
