Contemporary Led Space Design
Japan Media Arts Festival is a “Contest” in which authors praise creative media art works utilizing the latest expression technology and also Festival in which organizers support creative activity and broadly present various art works.
“The world of media arts is expanding with increasing speed every year.
notion mold is a space design in which feelings stirring behind the creation such as wishes and expectations of artists existing in the background of works which had made an entry into the Festival were replaced with forms as a design metaphor.Symbolic figures reaching out from the entrance were created with see-through fabric. They proceeded organically farther into the exhibition hall folding upward and downward. The area’s award-winning works were exhibited where the audience stepped in, as if he or she were guided by something, were lighted softly with category color zone by zone. A function was interwoven into the color which gave a vague hint of a contact point between an work which the audience was facing and the audience themselves.
LEDs were added to captions of works exhibited the same as last year. In my space construction, those lights were the same number as the artists who created works and asserted themselves gently in the semi-darkness of the exhibition space.”
