“Wink” is the series of 15 photographs of a
female bust that shows only the movement
of her eyes. One blink is split into seven stages
from -1 to +5. The repetition of the cycle of
one blink is displayed on the gallery walls. Each
stage of a blink interprets the depth of a
relationship that he/she acknowledges,
recognizes, becomes closer, touches, and
understands other people. If the object is
nothing more than just a shadow to him/her,
it is stage -1, where eyes are still closed and
face still down. As the stages advance and
after he/she clearly recognizes the object,
eyes become wide open to look straight into
it. A new
object comes up continuously and the infinite
confrontation continues.

「Wink」は、バストアップの女性の目元の変化だけを見せる15枚の連続写真。まばたきの程度をマイナス1からプラス5まで、7段階ほどに分け、その繰り返しを並べた。これらのレベルは、人が他人を認知、認識、接近、接触、理解といった「関わり」が進んでいく段階を表している。対象がただの影と変わりないのであればマイナス1、それは目を開く前、顔を上げる直前にあたる。段階が進み対象をはっきりと認識した後に、最後は大きく目を見開き、対象を直視する。新しい対象は休みなく現れ、絶え間ない対峙が続く。 |
