Exhibition Plan Summary
Display method: Ceramic flowers created from daily sketches at the Kato family stable are hung from the ceiling or spread on the floor. By hanging and displaying multiple small works, the viewer guides the eye and encourages an observational experience through the information obtained through active vision. What can we find by changing our perspective and line of sight in a limited, unchanging space? In order for children to quickly find enjoyment and immerse themselves in a variety of environments and situations, we teach children what changes occur when they learn something that has actually been there all along, but that they didn't notice or pay attention to. Create an opportunity to discover if there is.

Textile writer Sachiko Miyazaki When she gave birth in 2006, she began making her work using a method of weaving by wrapping thread around wire. This technique, which utilizes the flexibility of thread and wire, has become a suitable medium for reflecting the creativity and delicacy of life in my works. The works grow in size, freely transforming the space, and enveloping the viewer.

Artist Statement
円や循環を大きなテーマとし、ストーリー性のある作品作りをしています。円や循環とは、繰り返す、または両極にあるものが同時に存在するという意味合いを持ち、歴史や季節、または生命にも当てはまる事柄として作品に投影させています。モチーフは植物や過去の記憶、見た風景や夢など、限りなく私的なものを用いる事によって見るものの記憶に滑り込むという狙いがあります。
I create works that have a story-telling theme, with circles and cycles as major themes. Circles and cycles have the meaning of repetition or the simultaneous existence of two extremes, and I project them into my works as things that apply to history, seasons, and even life. My aim is to slip into the memories of the viewer by using extremely personal motifs such as plants, past memories, landscapes, and dreams.
