KAPITAL – WOOD CARVING

スマイリーの等身大の木彫刻。直径約55cmの桂の丸太を使用。できるだけ大きく存在感を持たせながら店舗の2階に設置できる重量感が非常に難しく、水分をふんだんに含んだ丸太は想像以上の質量を帯びていた。白太と赤みの色の境界線が首筋に現れ、マフラーを巻いているようにも見えチャームポイントになっている。今後水分が抜けていく上でのクラックや経年変化など楽しみである。
This is a “Smiley”, life-sized wood carving piece, made from a 55 cm Katsura log. The extreme weight of the natural undried log, which contained excessive moisture, was challenging to install on the 2nd floor as it was heavier than we had imagined. It was important to display it here to give it as large a presence as possible. The wood contains natural white and reddish color markings around the neck area, giving the impression that the Smiley figure is wearing a scarf,
making it a charm point of this piece. As this piece gradually dries, we look forward to watching the cracks form as part of the natural aging process.
