Author's comment

Using familiar materials, I give form to things we see on a daily basis.

Judge's review

An object constructed by applying work to familiar materials. It's too open to be called a sculpture, but too coherent to be called an installation. The work done on the plywood, string, and plastic bottles is not much different from everyday work, and the viewer seems to be able to relive the experience and walk through the space of the objects like a garden. The colors and shapes were both very sensitive and I really enjoyed it. (Tomio Koyama)
