Statement
This story is a fantasy that depicts the destruction of the human race to the collapse of the earth, but it is also a wake-up call to the real world. Through this story I represent a “vision” and “hope” for our new future.
In the year 2020, humanity is in turmoil, body and soul are invaded, and the world has been changed. Feeling a sense of crisis, I conceived of the story “Universe in the earth” and linked “Katamari sculpture,” that is the subject of my work. The first chapter was exhibited in 2021 and we are now in the fifth chapter.
Chapter Ⅰ “Universe in the earth”, Chapter Ⅱ “New continent”, Chapter Ⅲ “Kaijin’s Garden”,Chapter Ⅳ “New-Kaijin & Kaiju”, Chapter Ⅴ “Good-by Earth”
We humans, the earth, and the universe are all physically or spiritually influencing each other, circulating, and evolving so slowly without us noticing.
