on wall paper and shelf:
Architecture has been thought and build by its restriction from society and times, and it lives through livings among people and communities of its era. With this thought, I became interested in working on Japanese residences from 17th Century, where barely western civilization had its influence and more concentrated on buddhist tradition and shintoism. Of course also thought on convenience and simple construction with many handcraftmen, who are not much trained.
The wall paper is photocopied from a book and the background color is manipulated into different colors. These are currently printed with normal photographic printer, but is thought to be made with silkscreen print later on. This work will resemble its design through photographic and painterly approach.
The shelf is compiled with MDF-plates. The dimension of the size is 40% of an original shelf (will probably be 60% later on). This will be hanged on a wall as an exhibitional object. Originally, this is placed on the ground in corner of walls, but as one of the side distantly removed from a wall, this gives an architectual perspective, in which also shows the inside of the shelf. Also emphasizes lineal element.
Simple plan with simple material.
