Memory of site – place, power of the place—


Person from Nishikyo <> 2012

I express the memory of Hiroshima and world various places (site).

Isamu Noguchi (1904-1988) known as having designed peaceful Ohashi who appeared in the Hiroshima center. There was the person of atom bomb death memorial service monument plan that I dealt with by a request of Kenzo Tange who designed A-Bomb Museum in Hiroshima and a work of deep Noguchi of the relation. This plan ends in an illusion without seeing realization. The book exhibition pays more attention to art expression detonated by contact by the memory of the place (= site) like this Noguchi work and introduces a work visualizing the story to carry with it of the place by various attempts of the modern artist. I change a viewpoint with the monument with one side of the history as a form and turn a look to the surroundings and search possibility of way – of the work which is different from art – monument challenging new molding in various technique such as a picture, a photograph, installation while arresting a small poetic moment.
