The Last Land 2003 video installation 88min "Vernacular Spirit" Aomori Contemporary Art Centre, Japan VIDEO CLIP 2min related drawing "Last Land",this video work was made on location at the North edge of Japan - Shimokita peninsula is already imprinted in a collective consciousness as the "edge of the Japan". In my opinion, it means to free from social and political formations, and they might be a symbol of new possibility. In this place, making a video of tuna fishing in which is a kind of journey for inner world, tuna is the one of the biggest fish and quite precious one in Japan. Therefore, tuna is a symbol of unexpectedly idea. This video exhibits long time in a day, as same time as my real shooting in the sea. The images of the rough sea make visitor feel sick, so visitors hardly keep watching the image. I make what is reality to tuna-fishing for us and also make us realized the distance between real and the image. I try making real nature scene and relationship both side.
