This work is my first performance work: walking around on a huge raw clay piece according to sound recorded on my 30 minutes every day route from home to the academy.
The huge object created in the performance was burned.

As a person who has learned traditional crafts, I am interested in mass-produced ready-made products. Sometimes it’s a difficult feeling to be aware of a mixture of hatred and longing.
This series is decorated with plastic cases found in the daily life. I took my inspiration from the Japanese Jomon pottery (Doki).
The material used is recycled clay with a paper-like appearance, this eco-friendly process contrasts with environmentally harmful plastic packaging. The hand-assembled pieces are highlighted by contrasting the organic shape of the object with the angular shape of the plastic packaging.
