This project involves creating an art park that visitors can stay in, combining my past works with new ones. As many of my previous works were made for temporary installations, only video footage of them remains. Here, more than 50 pieces were installed permanently in a space where visitors can experience the works at any time. Also on permanent display are works with a connection to the surrounding natural environment and the movement of the celestial bodies. In this museum, guests can stay inside the interior of these works which have a variety of different possible uses, such as the background for photos in fashion magazines, or as a hall for concerts and events. The workshop also functions as a base for local residents or artist residencies. I am currently looking for a site to realize this project. <D.W>
過去の作品と新作を合わせ、滞在型の美術公園を作るプロジェクト。過去の作品の多くが一時的な展示の為に作られ映像でしか残されていない。50以上ある作品群を恒久的に設置し、いつでも作品を体験出来る場を作る。周囲の自然環境や、天体の運行と関連した作品も常設される。作品の内部に泊まれる美術館として、ファッション誌などの写真の背景として、コンサートやイベントのホールとしてなど、様々な用途に使われる。工房は、地域の人や作家の滞在制作の拠点としても機能する。現在建設用地を探している。
