About the Work

Sticker sheets, working together with printers and die-cutters, one purpose behind these experimental works was to improve printing-technologies. Were exhibited and sold as embodiments of his creative-concept on his solo show √¢‚?¨≈?KIGI Implosion-explosion√¢‚?¨¬ù in February 2013. Selecting from old photos had found or once taken, in order to visualize his concept he chose images with an affinity for his themes. Trial for techniques especially for die-cutting papers, we used same techniques as round-sticker sheets of stationery. It was big challenge to make huge-size, because usually are tiny. To be peeled, affixed and spread into society, the concept behind making the works in sticker form points to a certain irony, with a correlation to living matter whereby, like the law of entropy, humans and other living creatures mix and spread, moving further and further toward perdition/chaos. As works are used as stickers, the sense of disintegration becomes more and more apparent.
