Memory of Topography
Memory of Topography
Memories of a timeless rural mountain landscape are depicted in a space with varying elevations that visitors can move through.
The world of the artwork changes with the passage of real time. The budding rice plants, still small in the spring, grow larger in the summer and turn golden in the fall. As time passes, the flowers also change, and the gentle breezes move in response to the behavior of people. And as the people move around the flow of air changes, blowing the rice plants or scattering flower petals in different directions.
The transformative nature of the canvas and the continuous, dynamic behavior allow people to immerse themselves physically in the artwork, and the boundary between their body and the world is lost. As the shared world of the artwork changes due to the presence of each person in the space, everyone in the space begins to dissolve into the same world together.
