Interiors
〈Interiors 02〉, 2002.
Archival pigment print
119×95 cm
The series began with the artist’s experience of reminiscing about memories of the past when he was reorganizing boxes he had accumulated for a long time and found dust and a safety pin inside. He asks the question, “What kind of warmth do empty spaces and empty boxes leave us?” When visitors see an empty space in a photo, they can imagine many stories that may have passed by there. This series is an attempt to find invisible spirits and traces in an empty space.
