Formation of Lightness

To me, nature is a shelter from apprehension of the real world and a place where I can feel mental lightness for a while. This study is about the works forming the mental lightness when people meet a freshness of nature at the changing season.
Lightness in these works is not only a kind of joy, but also the most stable emotion, a state which is not interfered with by anything. It means a free and stabilized psychology such as a desire to be a bird flying without gravity. Also, it is not so much an antipathy as a thirst for wanting a pleasant present.
The works were proceeded by two steps : line and plane. In line, I have expressed dynamic feeling by arranging its size and curve. In the case of plane, I worked to make open forms like a kind of net structure with clay.
Each element of the form is repetitive, simplified, dynamic and open : the work giving us briskness and lightness in appearance.
The More the works proceed, the more they ascend upward, opening to the surrounding and floating on the air. The forms of my works persue openness, implicating human desire for getting more freedom out of the present.
