Nagato Iwasaki is an artist who mainly creates statues of people who give a mysterious feeling through wood.
What is unique is that when making such a statue, wood is not processed, or even cut or split.
It is said that only wood washed away by the river due to the typhoon was used.
Adhesion and assembly were done with wooden stakes...
It is said that all parts are filled in naturally to express a return to nature, just like humans returning to the soil after death.
In addition to the external appearance of the work, I think the message and intention that were melted in the process of making it was good.
Of course, the appearance of the work is also really mysterious and tastes so I think I've been looking for it for a while haha
