| Concept | 作品コンセプト 大空を昆虫、鳥が飛ぶ。子どものころから飛行に興味を持ちつづけ、その機能に対し最終的命題『永遠に重力からの離脱』を思う。宇宙空間への帰省本能を秘め、試みようとする"想い"による形象化。たまご形の石上にへばり付き、重力を振り切って飛ぶという自分の意志と力で、はるかかなた・・・ Concept of the artwork Insects and birds fly in the sky. I have always been interested in the act of flying since childhood, and in relation to that functionality I think of the final proposition 'infinite liberation from gravity'. Holding a homing instinct to go back to the outer space, a form is given to the desire. Sticking to the egg-shaped stone, by its will and power to tear itself away from gravity, far away... 鑑賞する子供たちへのコメント 重力をはね返して昆虫、鳥のように空を飛べたら・・・。人工衛星が飛んでる今日にも、石上にしがみつき、人力飛行物体で飛ぶという自分の意志と力で大空へ向かってゆく、そんな気持、想いがむくむくと活動を始めるだろう。 Message for children If we could overcome the gravity and fly like insects or birds... Today, where man-made satellites are flying, our feeling and desire would start to grow to stick to the stone and take off towards the sky with own will and power on human-powered flying object. |
