Invisible Sculpture” is a series of sculptures printed with photographs of the background that assimilate into the landscape.
The sculptures, in which photographs of the background are transferred onto metal objects representing everyday life in the city, such as fishermen, anglers, and abandoned bicycles, blend into the landscape, and appear as if they have disappeared. While assimilating into the landscape, the “sculptures” evoke various invisible elements of the landscape, such as the time that has passed, the lives that once existed, and the people who have been involved in the past. At the same time, the sculpture, as a cutout of time, resonates with the changing landscape, generating various time axes.

I also performed to become fictional fishermen with floated a boat on the river, and blending in with the scenery.
