For more infomation; see me on the web at : http://www2r.biglobe.ne.jp/~makoto-h/ ARTIST STATEMENT Human beings are emotionally moved by the conscious and unconscious movements of human beings, animals and plants --- the movements as a proof of life for the mortal existence. Human beings are emotionally moved by non-living things, through the emotional identification with them, through the mechanism of cognitive engagement. The essence of human beings resides in the consciouness of the limitation of life, the limitation defined by the death. Art is born within this limited nature of life. The history of art is characterised solely by the transitions of consciouness. Science, to what extent it goes, cannot remove this limitation of the life of human beings. In the distant future, when people realise the limit of competing for records, perhaps people will find the real reason why they actually are impressed by competitors. They, I think, are moved because they see the movements of life, of the mortal existence, which represent the vitality of life. Some day, records (bodies) will be reduced to nothing and all the competitions will be gauged by an - ambiguous - form of scoring, which representing the "artistic impression". Art, an ambiguous death that silently come to the consciouness of limitedness, makes human beings human beings. My art, that is the representation of mortality.
