' I want to see the borders of invisible things' ; says Ai FUJIYOSHI,
who was born in 1975, has been creating
the works which visualize her obsession. Two years ago, she made her
debut with a huge work "Swimming
Pool" at Roppongi Weissfeld.
The water that fills the pool was made of beautiful blue resin and did
not allow us to bring up the stairs because of the size and weight.
In order to do the exhibition, we had to remove the wall and use a crane
to
set it up. The quiet and dynamic exhibition was received very well.
The work mentioned above was nominated for a group exhibition at the
Yokohama Museum and attained a
reputation. In terms of the production, she attempted to set up a fund
to cover the high cost.
Two years later, FUJIYOSHI has found a subsequent motif for "water"
called "roots". Although the existence and importance of "roots"
is quite obvious, they are usually unable to
be seen. So, if they are under the state of being seen, they do not
work as roots. This paradox mirrors her obsession ' I want to see the
borders of invisible things.'.
Her latest paintings and a large suspended sculpture will be on view.
A reception for the artist will be held on Fri.4th.July.2008, 19:00-.
Everyone is welcomed.
