RESONANCE: VORTEX to DIVERSITY

This large-scale installation is coated with CHROMASHINE®, a metallic pigment developed by Toyo Aluminium, that is coloured by "light interference" and that changes colour depending on the angle from which it is viewed. A vortex-shaped object covered with CHROMASHINE® was created, revealing countless colors in a single pigment. It presents itself as a colourful embodiment of a world full of diversity, where new values are nurtured as a result of different aspects meeting and resonating. In nature, a vortex is formed when two qualitatively different states come into contact: liquid and gas, fast and slow, warm and cold, thick and thin, heavy and light. In other words, a vortex can be described as a shape that visualizes the process where different things meet and fuse together to create something completely different. By combining a vortex with CHROMASHINE® that shows various colours depending on the viewing angle, a representation of the world is drawn where new values are created out of diversity.

東洋アルミニウムが開発した、見る角度によって色が変化する干渉色アルミ顔料「クロマシャイン®」を活用した大型インスタレーションです。一つの顔料の中に無数の色が見られるクロマシャイン®を、異なるものが出会い、共鳴し、新たな価値が育まれる多様性にあふれる世界を色で体現した存在であると捉え、クロマシャイン®をまとった渦型のオブジェを制作。自然界では、液体と気体、速と遅、温と冷、濃と薄、重と軽といった、質的に異なる2つのものが接触するときに渦が形成されます。つまり渦は、異質な存在が出会い、融合し、全く別のものが生まれる過程を可視化したフォルムと言えるかもしれません。見る角度によってさまざまな色彩を見せるクロマシャイン®と渦の掛け合わせによって、多様性から新たな価値が生み出される世界そのものを描きます。
