I have been intrigued by public places, especially train stations in Tokyo that are filled with people just passing through. Everyone loses their identity and becomes just another face in a crowd. To some people it may feel lonely if overwhelmed by the number of strangers, but to others it may feel relaxing/liberated to be anonymous. What people feel in such a situation depends on their experience, personality, and mental state. Therefore, a public place serves as a way to reconsider one’s identity by in turn losing it. Under such conditions I somehow start looking at myself objectively as I look at others in a crowd, and then a question arises: who am I? This is the question I pose to viewers through my artwork.
