About Interpreting Discomfort 油彩画シリーズ

『Interpreting Discomfort(不快感の解釈)』は、パーソナルスペースと社会的圧力をテーマにした油彩画のシリーズです。作品には、日常における居心地の悪さの瞬間を再現した演出的な場面の中に、手と眼が描かれています。思いやりのある行為は人と人との距離を縮める一方で、過剰な関心はかえって不快感を生むこともあります。本シリーズでは二つの技法を組み合わせています。間接技法ではモノクロームの下地を築き、その上から透明な色層を重ねるグレーズを施します。直接技法では混色した絵具を画面に直接置いていきます。シリーズはキャンバスおよび木製パネルに油彩で制作され、対話の出発点としてギャラリーで展示されています。

Design Challenge
Ideation and the atmosphere is the hardest part of this project. In the presentation of the picture, the shape of the hands must be placed harmoniously in the picture without losing the beauty.

This series deals with issues of discomfort and stress in everyday life. We all care about how others view us, this has become the same as our invisible living standards.
