THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD

2014

Minimalistic sculpture made from japanese local cedar wood, "the other side of the world" speak about identity and otherness. Where is inside and what is outside ? Is it really different in Europe and in Japan ? Or is it simply the same but all opposite ?
The installation try to show this weird feeling, asking "empty and full" concept, transparency but weight, thoughtlessness but mass.
