Artist Comments

"Imagine opposite shore-Thinking on the other side"

In Japan, there is a saying, "Fire on the opposite bank." The fire on the other side of the river indicates that there is nothing to do with no pain, because the disaster does not affect you.
This proverb reminds us of the increasingly fragmented society, the less-than-sufficient response to minorities and the vulnerable in today's world.
It may be easy to divide the fire on the opposite shore into something that is not related to you and not mind it.
But at the same time, human beings have the power to imagine things that are not in front of them or far away from the other side.
A series of “ blinking outlines '' that visualize that people are moving each other's components beyond the nation and ethnicity, past, present and future, even though they can not see by breathing, “ connecting '' “ the sea '' "Uragawa beyond" produced with two faces of “ blocking ''-new works of series such as “ mirrors '' depicting reflection among monkeys and monkeys in humans Announce (Scripkariu Ochiai Anna)
