Author's comment

This work is made by rusting iron powder and dyeing it onto cotton cloth. The magnetic field, which is a natural order, and the passage of time as iron decays, both of which visualize invisible entities.

Judge's comment

The production method of creating shapes using iron powder using natural magnetic force and fixing the rust onto cloth is certainly an act of making the invisible visible. However, there is a work beyond that. I hope that his works, which give a sense of space, light, and darkness, will continue to develop even further. (Tomio Koyama)
