STATEMENT<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Chrome series juxtaposes faces and expressions \u2013 vital factors that constitutes a portrait, a portrait\u2013 through layers of human warmth or the organicness with inorganic matters absent of living nature, such as medium, resin, or silver paint. It thus revokes the true nature and the essential qualities of the subject by covering it with multi-layered semi-solids where the reflections further complexify the space, and causes a change in the cognition and the perception of the viewers; it draws them into chaos, by creating a disorder in which all of these factors entwines and interacts with each other. Moreover, the covered expressions let one discover a similitude to oneself in the fractions of the subject with the emergence of one\u2019s own presence, and re-editing and re-cognization of oneself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 A very little change in the initial condition alters the support\u2019s expression greatly and unexpectedly even to the artist, appearing as if it was designed by nature, and explores the possibilities in an appreciation through the senses by inviting the viewer to both pleasure and disgust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
