Within the void land　
虚土にて

I positioned it within the space as an extension of myself—a projection of consciousness that quietly links back to the natural world. Through this gesture, the work seeks to hold a state of equilibrium, where lightness and weight, strength and fragility, reality and apparition remain interdependent rather than opposed.

In this sense, the piece becomes a site where “land” can be signified even in the absence of soil—an invocation of place that exists not through material ground, but through presence, memory, and perception.

Living Funeral of the Place　場の生前葬

The terraced fields that spread across the landscape reveal countless variations, each bearing the imprint of passing time. Like human lives, they emerge, flourish, and eventually fade. Their arc of growth and decline is quiet, yet deeply compelling.

Wellspring of acts and words
言動の泉

The moment written language emerged, the symbolic realm broke through the limits of sound and sign, opening a deeper and more intricate world—a realm capable of reproducing itself endlessly across time and space. From then on, everything we do or say acquires meaning only within the framework of this symbolic order.

In this sense, we are both bound by the symbolic order and constituted through it. We are, simultaneously, its subjects and its very substance.
