Volume of Lives : Vol.1/ 2002-2007



from 2002

I showed this project work in the exhibition which was named "Sculpture : Eastern Japan" in January 2002, at the same time, I started to look for collaborators of this "Volume of lives" project.
Many poeple applyed to collaborator before the end of the exhibition.

I sent all pieces to each collaborator in March 2002.



in Jun 2008.


Almost all collaborators sent the stone back to me. I put all stones which had each history and color together to the first stone's shape in Jun 2008.
It became wonderful block. I would like to say a lot of thanks to all collaborators who had lived with each stone piece for 6 years.
