'Distant Buildings' Sculpture by Chinoko Sakamoto
£830.00
“I am interested in creating forms that invoke memory. The rawness resembles the memory invoked from looking at my old photographs, with details lost but fondness and familiarity remained. The inspirations that prompted this work are recollections of mundane objects – pebbles, glass, the way buildings looked from a distance, walls of housing or fences. I study their structure, proportion and system to recreate them, imbuing them with stillness and yet an undeniable presence.”
– Chinoko Sakamoto on this piece created for the Making Memories exhibition
