INSIDE FORM-13PLS

Limestone

45×132×80 (h)cm

The stone I used this time was softer than marble, I tried to creat a big form as possible and when narrowing it down, trying to find an equilibrium with the stone's strength.
I went as far as I thought I could get away with, while expressing the softness of the curved interior.

INSIDE FORM-10LS-CARPA

Limestone

79×73×146 (h)cm

In my sculpture, I tried to leave a square stone form of outside while creating space and volume of free forms on the inside.
My aim was to have balance between the geometric form of the exterior and the organic form of the interior, trying to emphasize that balance, coloring areas where I didn't change, and left the carved parts in their original colors of the stone.

INSIDE FORM 08-3 ORGANO

Brack granite

88×58×147 (h)cm

My idea for this work was to recognize the outside as a geometrically simple form and pursue a geometrically complex form on the inside.
For the coloration, orange and white have been used for Japanese shrines since ancient times and, for me, they are the colours of Japan, so I used them as the theme colours for this work.

INSIDE FORM 06-1

Black granite

80×130×85 (h)cm

My idea in producing this piece was to make the most of the bulk of the block of raw material, by creating a space within the mass.
The result is a basket-like shape made of stone.
I was aiming for a shape that would look like a combination of two triangular pyramids from a particular angle.

Envisaging a large stone split into eight pieces, a composition of faces which did not previously exist is formed inside the original stone. That exists in the mind's eye, but cannot be seen in its concreteness. Adding thickness to that form, I tried to carve it from one raw stone. Asking what it would be like if I added some holes to those faces, I arrived at my current piece of work.
