3Is the exhibition for the first time in years

個展Dm

Apart from the casual watercolor sketch exhibition, this will be my first solo exhibition in three years.。While planning every year、It's been 3 years since I canceled twice.。Of course, that doesn't mean I didn't create anything during that time.、I really didn't feel like having a solo exhibition.。Even if you come this far、I still feel like I want to stop。The other half is interested in myself。

"Shelter Man" was produced before the Great East Japan Earthquake.。From the word shelter、It reminds me of images from the nuclear power plant accident.、unrelated。my personal、I would like to emphasize again that this was created from everyday sensibilities.。

Recent major works include ``Screaming Man'' (2008), ``Tatsumaki no Man'' (2009), and ``Shinsei No. 5'' (2010).、Connected to "Shelter Man" (2011.A different work from DM)。I think what I'm drawing is a portrait of a giant man (probably myself) or the state of existence.。

In ``The Screaming Man,'' it is not human ``words.''、I drew it because I wanted to scream as a human "voice".、In “Tatsumaki Man” even before drawing、Even while I was drawing it, a huge itch was growing inside me.。What is grotesque in “New Life”? I thought about this by looking at my own physical changes (including aging).。and "shelter"。

The primary meaning of "shelter" is, of course, "a cloak/structure for protection."。The premise is that you must be aware that you are a weak creature.。but、Then the giant、Doesn't this contradict the image of a grotesque and violent "man"?

In Japanese folklore, a giant man named ``Oni'' has horns.、My whole body is red or blue、Moreover, it has a hairy and grotesque appearance.、There is a ``personality'' that possesses ferocious and frightening power that is beyond the reach of humans and animals.。There are many stories about young girls being sacrificed.、There are many stories of him valuing the girl more than his own life.。If you just look at that area、Maybe the person I'm drawing is a man?、Actually, I feel it myself。The shape of Nebuta, my hometown of Aomori, also provides an interesting perspective.。

but、It's called a reinforcement meeting.。I didn't create it with Nebuta in mind.、It's not like I studied folktales from around the world and then changed my ideas.。Daiichi、I won't be able to maintain my own reputation if I try to add meaning to things like that.。If you're a man (because you're a man), it's sad.、I sympathize with。It is through this empathy that we are connected to the “new birth.”。(I call a beautiful woman a man in my heart.。Probably whitening、Beautiful skin is the result of many sacrifices made on the other side of the world) I am drawing from my own history.。drawing the history of one's existence。The reason I am a little different from other painters is that、I'm sure there's a reason for that、I've been thinking lately。

*If the beautiful woman is a man、I am paradoxically confused as to what I am.。the world is troublesome。

I ride a bicycle at one time or another?

2011 watercolor gerbera F4 (partial)

Bicycle news has been increasing recently.。It also seems like bad manners are the only thing that gets picked up on.。until recently、Who was talking about ecology and cleanliness?、It seems like you've already forgotten。

The number of accidents has increased in part because the number of people riding has simply increased.。However, there were almost no measures that were commensurate with that.。There are definitely people with bad manners.。Criticism seems to be particularly concentrated on young people.、Aunties' poor manners (is it ignorance?、I don't know if it's just being presumptuous, but I feel it's much better than that.。However、Something that seems to be life-threatening、I'm having a little trouble。

Also for bicycles、Traffic lessons are compulsory for everyone who rides, regardless of age.、Or take measures such as more active encouragement.、Ensuring safe lanes, etc.、First of all, isn't there a lot of things that the government needs to do?。I don't have money、The excuse is that we don't have enough staff.、People died because of it、Isn't that the same as saying that it can't be helped even if you get hurt?。

Suddenly、When did I become able to ride a bicycle? I thought。

If I remember、Since I was able to drive a car、I remember being much more moved when I learned to ride a bicycle.。And that made my range of activity go far beyond the area where I lived.、give me a little adventure、You showed me new scenery that I never imagined.。junior high school summer、I got a part-time job and bought my own bicycle.。I think it was around 8,000 yen.。I worked for 200 yen a day, but that money was not enough.、My parents provided the rest.。

Bicycle culture has not taken root in Japan.。bicycles and cars、This is because the nation has not cultivated the richness to enjoy the goodness of itself.。This country is still unable to escape from the poverty-stricken nature of using these resources solely for the sake of work efficiency.、It's perfectly okay to take away the view from the train window from a high-speed train.、I guess the roots are the same。　2011/11/12

 

Heart and shit

片腕の男　F6　2011

I thought that painting was my heart。

I don't think that's wrong these days.、Just like you don't live every day conscious of your heartbeat.、I'm trying not to think like that.。

That kind of thinking、When the way you feel deepens yourself、I may have thought of it at some point。When I was tracing the flat shelves at the bookstore with my eyes,、On the belt of one of the books is a message that says, ``When you're lost,、I saw the phrase “I make choices that are more disadvantageous to me.”。Of several chapters、Pick out a few that are likely to catch your eye and highlight them.、That's the usual way、Depending on my state of mind and interests at the time, my attention may be drawn to me.。In other words、That reflects my current state of mind.。

A magazine called National Geographic、Published a separate book called ``Survival Techniques to Survive Anywhere in the World.''。I'm sure something similar was written there as well.。"When in doubt, don't make a choice.、Wait a while.”。When you are lost, your field of vision becomes narrower.、It meant that the choices that were originally possible disappeared from my mind (it says especially that you should not make choices in the dark).。

In short, you need some leeway.。No matter how cornered I am、Or rather, the more the situation is like that, the more、This means that it is important to have "leeway to not move".。This is difficult even if you know it。I don't really have a choice、When you say there's only one way、People won't get lost、They say it also gives you peace of mind.。

The picture is my heart、I feel like the more I think about this, the deeper my confusion becomes.。Don't take too much care of it as if you were worshiping it、I feel like it's going to get stiff and actually make my heart worse.。On the other hand, if you think, ``A painting is like my own poop.''、Emit more and more、In other words, I don't know if it can be produced.。There's a huge difference between the heart and poop.、If they die and turn into fossils, wouldn't they both look similar?。

1991The mummy of a 5,300-year-old Neolithic man was discovered in a glacier in the Italian Alps in 2016.。It's called Iceman。A new autopsy was performed in November last year.、Some of the results were announced in June of this year.。What attracted particular attention was、From Iceman's body itself、It was the contents of that stomach.。

Posterity determines the value of people and things.。Even poop can be used as valuable academic material.、Even if I try hard to say that this is a once-in-a-lifetime painting,、There is no difference in the fact that future generations will decide whether or not to remain.。
