The first thing I created was a small, small mass that was almost invisible.
But by interacting with light, they begin to shine, swarm, reveal differences, and begin to look like creatures.
Next, if you keep staring at each of the small solids, you will find that there are even smaller spaces in various shapes.
I wanted people who entered this space to feel the beauty, strength, and small space of each individual in the ephemeral.
The theme of this work is "Spatialization of knitting".
Originally, I thought that by studying the act of knitting, which has a strong impression of textile as a thing to wear, from various angles, it would be possible to create a new way of looking and expressing as a space. In addition, I started graduation work, thinking that I could use my own unique knitting that I had continued for many years.
In response to the regular act of knitting, I decided to seek uneven beauty, and I used transparent materials and confront light.
By doing so, the clumps I created were not the same shape, so they became creature with individuality.
I think it has become a space that only I can create.
