Artists

Yusuke Iguchi

The 26th installment of this series invites Yusuke Iguchi, a contemporary artist who develops installation art based on the theme of "the relationship between human experience and landscape." Having studied architecture and engraving at university, Iguchi creates "new landscapes" in his installations with the viewer's participation, based on the concept of "changes in 'place' created by the viewer's experience.”

This exhibition introduces works created at the Kanaz Forest of Creation, including “Kaleido-Scape," an interactive work in which the viewer changes the landscape by moving a giant kaleidoscope, and "CUBeSCAPE," a work in which everyday objects are transformed into cubes that become one with the forest.
Venue: Kanaz Forest of Creation Museum, Art Core, outdoors
