People’s thoughts, remarks and lives are appear in our vision which formed into photographs, movies, letters, and become a huge timeline.
My work evokes and awakens the oblivion of the physical body in the current virtual world.

“Conscience is the voice of the soul; the passions are the voice of the body.”
This quotes was created by philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau.
Under these circumstances, all human relationships are now concentrated from seclusion to the virtual world through the Internet. People’s thoughts, remarks and lives appear in our vision which forms into photographs, movies, letters, and becomes a huge timeline.
Since I started the quarantine, I felt misgivings about the oblivion of regular relationships with people and the oblivion of the physical body. 
Only when the body exists does emotion-passion exist.
During this pandemic, I videotaped my body and movements almost like a diary to avoid daily forgetfulness of the body.
The task of getting inside yourself leads to re-encountering the passions hidden within you.

Release -  Essence 


I still exist. 
I stopped communicating with others in person, however my body and consciousness which enters the inner world and repeats self-conversation.
From the quarantine, people are connecting thru the internet more and more.
This situation reminds me of Sci-Fi and animation movies. 
Sometimes I feel like my smartphone is embedded in my body.
Around the middle of the 90’s, the internet spread around the world and created a digital society.
The digital society and the real society became almost like one.
I wonder ... are my body and thoughts involved in the digital world?
I don’t want to forget my body which really exists, but also my body is “here".
