About the new work “AGEHA”
I have compiled 24 works presented at the solo exhibition "AGEHA" held in 2018 into a book. I felt that the 24 works exhibited at that time had a common world, a story, and a history. I feel like it's better to wait quietly for this world, but I also feel that there's something wrong with closing this world off with just the space and time of an exhibition, and leaving it in its peripheral form. I thought I'd leave it there.
The world and events depicted here may be the wonders of visible time in the visible world, or they may be your own.
I would like people to see and read it not only in the limited time of the exhibition, but also as an independent painting or as a collection, in the time when they are here, going here, and stopping. I will entrust it to you in the form of a book.
