TOKYO

2018 558×1210

Polyester film, paper

Tokyo is a most ebullient city, its reigning chaos having a big influence upon the lives of its inhabitants. The petals the work is composed of photographic angles and takes describing the city of Tokyo, patiently assembled piece after piece.

​

​

The colors printed on the material of this work are originally part of the colors of Tokyo. Various scenes of Tokyo were photographed with a camera, and then the prints were chopped up into small pieces. In a sense, these colors could be considered camouflage for Tokyo, but the elusive abstraction of these colors and their symbolism on the city map suggest the chaos of the city.
