"Display of surface - invisibility / visibility / non-visibility" is composed of painting while using video to document the process. The image in the painting came from an idea inspired by a novel called "The Castle" by Franz Kafka. I created a very durablecanvas with help of Mr. Noriyori Shirakawa, a researcher of technique and materials of oil painting. The canvas was painted with Vaseline, invisible but you can still "see" that there is an image on its surface.
One could consider it a painting from future - oxidation and degradation may cause the invisible image to be visible after a few years.
It is a drifting of invisible images. Just like the titular castle in Kafka's work, what we perceive is not always a complete picture; It is a metaphor for the solid structure of painting, questioning our awareness and senses- fiction and non-fiction.

「Display of Surfaceー不可視／可視／未可視」は、カフカの小説「城」から着想を得たイメージと、油画の技法材料の研究者（白河宗利氏）の助言と協力得て準備した「耐久性の高い絵画素地」に描く、見えない絵画とドキュメント映像による作品。ワセリンを付けた手で直接描かれたキャンバスは視覚的に「不可視」でありながらも、確かに表面にイメージが存在しています。またこの絵画は、酸化作用や経年変化によって数十年、数百年後にイメージが現れる「未来の絵画」なのかもしれません。
