コレクション: Isaji Yugo

Isaji’s work is not simply about physical transformation but about bringing up a new perception. The objects he uses—such as plastic bottles and cutter blades—are all materials that are typically overlooked or discarded. However, in Isaji’s hands, they are transformed into something much more, becoming symbols of the hidden potential and deeper connections that exist within our daily surroundings. By breaking down these materials and reassembling them, Isaji challenges our assumptions and perceptions about what these objects are, encouraging us to think differently about the world around us.Isaji elaborates, “When I work, I don’t just see the material for what it is. I try to understand what it can become, its deep nature. Doing this I am taking away the focus from myself and I center on the object itself."  This research of the deeper truth of mundane world is central to his work.
