Curvature is a characteristic of space, and creates the gravity force -
The cause of the 'horizon' is the curvature of the ground. What is always recognized is the horizon, not the curvature. What we see when we look at the horizon is the 'horizon' created by curvature. Gravity is also the curvature of space, and by this we stand with our feet on the ground. But almost every moment we can only feel the gravity of the earth, not the curvature of space.

​

In my work, 
the 'horizon' symbolizes a limit that is known but cannot be crossed. 
It symbolizes the wall of perception that is understood but cannot be crossed. 

The manifestations of experience are often different from the facts, and despite our understanding of them, there are limits that we cannot cross. 

 

These works are the expression of my thoughts and feelings in this perspective

The image creation collaboration using generative AI DALL-E 2 means a lot to me at this point. For this work, I actively utilized the DALL-E 2 to transform similar, almost identical images in various ways. This is a very difficult task for humans. In addition, the current situation that AI can solve the difficulties that humans face in such repetition is deeply embedded in the message of this work.
