世間では、花見などを興じておられるようであるが、私は、缶詰ている。私の「友達」はtwitterで見る政治家やジャーナリストのつぶやきと、iTuneで購入した音楽。ホセ・ジェイムスがこのごろのお気に入り。
この20年くらいからの50枚の写真のセレクトと成形とそのキャプション(年、作品タイトル、撮影された場所、撮影者の名前)をエクセルでつける。それから、おおよそれら作品の変遷史を書く。さらに、出された質問に答える。以上のデータは、全部で120MBほどあったので、YOUSENDITで3回に分けて送った。まる3日ほどかかった作業だけど、生かされるといいな。こんな、いったい、にわか取材で、どんな記事がかけるのか、疑問であるけれど、署名記事であれば、まあ、いいか。ちなみに、この件のコーディネーターで、その記事を書くのは、ホンオボン兄さん。
以下は、質問への応え。
1. When did you start performance? why?, what?
The first performance show was in1991.
I was a painter. One day for my art works I noticed that I needed to use time and space and body, too.
At the first time, I handed brush and used black ink and worked with two collaborators in a cemetery.
2. Do you have performance dream and project?
I am trying my works to be extreme minimalism with high richness.
3. What do your philosophy of life?
I stand and discover the side of “beautiful imagination”.
4. Who are your teachers of performance?
I don’t have any teacher.
I respect Takako Saito as an artist and as a woman. She worked a member of Fluxus in 60~70’s in NY and Europe. Now she lives in Dusselfdolf.
5. Do you have your beautiful family story?
No. My family is very normal. It is important for me, but for the other it is boring. I think.
6. Do you read very interesting performance book?
“The connected Body?”
Edited by Allsopp and Scott DeLahunta
7. Do you like and love Korea and Korea performance?
Yes. It is very unique culture in the world and very close and much different with Japanese.
8. Who are your performance friends in Japan?
What is definition of “friend”?
9. Do you have happy mind because performance?
Yes. It is very healthy to think and express things by body and time and space and lovely material than to speak and write and plan and negotiate with the other.
10. Sometime do you have mental agony because performance?
No. I am thinking that performance art is my enemy and I am always trying to kill "him". It is very exiting. Mostly they became nice games. I love it.
以下1992年の写真。なつかしいなあ。
近所の人が、近所の畑で売っていたというネギと人参を分けてくださったので、ネギのくたくた煮と人参の甘煮をつくる。なかなか、旨し。
さて、明日は、新しいホームページの仕事ができるといいのだが。
