| Concept | 中央に逆立ちしている二等辺の逆三角形は両側の直方体との間に仕込まれた磁力の反撥性によってバランスをとりながら危く立っている。現代日本美術展や日本国際美術展など屋内の公募展でも80年代から大活躍してきた作家だが、近年は彩色をほどこした野外作品でも大きな成長をみせている。ちょっと目には不可能だと思えるトリッキーな造形物が緑の中でふらりふらりと風に揺らぐ姿は、文明の危うさのようなものを想わせ、都市の清新な緊張感を漂わせている。 The isosceles triangle standing upside down in the middle stands precariously by the repulsive force of the magnets embedded between the two rectangular cubes standing on both sides. The artist has been a leading figure in indoor competitions like the Contemporary Japanese Art Exhibition and the Japan International Art Exhibition since 1980s, but his recent works showcase his significant growth as a skilled producer of color-coated open-air sculptures. Tricky forms apparently impossible at first sight, floating and swaying against the backdrop of the green landscape, remind us of the perils of our civilization and effectively capture the fresh tension of the urban life. |
