Shiori Okazaki / Tochigi
Mountains of silkworm
Raw silk made in KUNI to climb pillars dripping sap in the exhibition.
Thin supple single thread becomes a pure white line is entangled spun.
Blackish of soot accumulated the years to wrap the line.
Before Artists entering the production, climb around mountains.
It is stored in the mountain shape in the body,
Raw silks go to expand the memory of the mountain form along the finger.
The appreciation person can experience vicariously a scene when it is what “it overlooked” and a mountain is actually climbed in the inside of the done mountain. 〔“looking up”〕
