富山在住、ガラス作家光井威善さんとの約2年ぶりの6回目の個展です。
今展では代表作の”bottle People”を中心に展示販売します。
作家の感性と経験に根差した技術、一瞬のリズムと感覚から生まれる
宙吹きガラスの温もりを感じる作品です。
ちょっとシュールでユーモラス。ほのぼのとしたノスタリジックな佇まい、フェイスは光と影で表情豊かに変化します。有機的なフォルムはどれも個性豊か。眺めていると自分自身、家族、友人の存在と重なり、鑑賞する私たちを見守る様な穏やかな姿に惹かれます。
「静かに佇むボトルピープル。彼らを作っていると不思議と心が落ち着きます。見る人にもこの不思議な安らぎを感じて欲しい。」 光井威善
" The bottle people are standing silently. Forming them makes me feel peaceful and calm. I hope to share this feeling with the viewer." - Takeyoshi Mitsui
