Untitled
by Naohiro Utagawa

It is important for me to think about different pieces I can create in a given situation.
In the beginning, I do not know how a piece will turn out. Little by little I play and explore what I can create by using whatever resourse is present at that time.
By putting restrictions on space and objects I utilize, various rules and tendencies appear in the creating process.
As I wonder about the why and the what of the pieces I create with theses rules and tendencies, I feel that I am touching upon something important that human being possess in deep unconscious.
