From the Earth Surface
Clay, 12min video
2023
This work attempts to capture the surface of the earth itself. In this work, the artist himself rolls 20 kg (45 lbs) of clay on the ground in Tokyo. The clay changes shape with each step he takes and continues to contain sand, tobacco, leaves, rubber bands, and other objects that fall to the ground.
This act represents the earth, showing that what is on the surface of the earth is constantly changing and moving.
