​招待撮影 / Invitation to KAI-TEN-KAI

私が普段やっている回転回の制作過程を来場者に体験してもらうため、美術館内に自宅の部屋を再現して来場者に上がってもらいました。畳の上に回転盤を設置してその上に座布団を敷き、そしてカラフルな布や愉快なパーティーグッズを数多く用意して来場者を待ちます。来場者はカメラの前で２０秒間回転盤上で回転しますが、その時に自分がどんな回転体になるか想像し、色とりどりの衣装を絵具のように考えて身に纏います。この作品は２００５年に横浜美術館で発表し、約８００名の参加、８１１枚の回転回の写真を撮影して壁面に展示しました。

 

I had recreated my room at home in the art museum and invited audiences to experience my work of ‘Kai-Ten-Kai’.  I arranged a turn-table on the tatami floor and set a cushion on it.  Then prepared all sorts of colorful cloths and party goods. The audiences were to sit on a turn-table and stay there for about 20 seconds while it whirled.  They were asked to image themselves as spinning objects they would make on the turn-table and wear dresses of various colors.  

This performing work started at the Yokohama Art Museum in 2005 and about 800 people had participated.  I took 811 photographs and exhibited them on the walls of the museum.
