2018年 05月 15日 「松永圭太展 蛻 [Monuke]」4日目

「松永圭太展　蛻 [Monuke]」(~5/20迄)の4日目。

昨日に引き続き「蛻　Monuke」。幅10~20cmの小品です。

空蝉（うつせみ）とは、文字通り「蝉の抜け殻」と同時に、「現（うつ）し人（おみ）」＝この世の人、現世の意味を持ちます。抜け殻と現世。現世とは儚きもの、儚きものこそ現世なりと。松永さんの空間を包み込んだ殻の作品を見ていると、虚ろな中にこそ実体がある、といった禅問答が頭のなかをループするのです。

MONUKE-The empty shell. It is the production of Keita Matsunaga that is made in Tajimi City, Gifu Prefecture. Casks, empty, hollow. However, not because nothing was there, there were traces of something escaping, accompanied by lonesome emptiness. If we think about it, the container is filled with something inside, an object enclosed by airspace. Thinking about it, inside of the vessel is filled with a container like an object wrapped with small airspace. A Tea bowl[Chawan] fosters the concept of metaphysics by seeing the profound world in its void. Monuke desires the concept of supernatural presence.

Mr Matsunaga 's work is rooted in his understanding, regardless of whether it is impractical or practical. The point is the beauty of unintentional natural dynamics appearing on the surface layer from the enclosed space, that is the point. Through the process of pressing the clay against the plaster mould of the mathematical form from the inside, the texture born outside is due to the untouched raw soil. We transposed two hemispheric clays and combined it; we retain a pattern that forms by its own weight and firing. He is studying architecture, trying to model clay pottery work by intentionally creating an imbalance between the plasticity of the clay and the architectural rigidity. The unusual misalignment of the geometric form created by CAD by the roughness of natural raw soil will be able to express Matsunaga's work.
