Hair Portfolio
----------------------------------------
社会や野心がもたらした評価や基準、
数字で表した目に見える情報は
一体何を推し量っているのだろうか。
こびりついたその認識から離れることができるのだろうか。
投じた問い達は
共通した一つの概念を孕んでいると友人により気付かされた。
ポートフォリオとして始めた制作は
情報処理の記録としての機能を併せながら
同じ態度のままに姿の違う集合体へと変身を遂げ、
無限も有限もなく"あるがまま"を示したそれは言った。
How do people choose their hairstyles?
Is it because of a celebrity, or because everyone has the same hairstyle, or it’s trendy, or simply because you like the style?
When choosing a hairstyle, if factors about the individual other than the hairstyle aren’t visible, can we still say that we like a hairstyle just by looking at it?
Furthermore, when we remove information other than the hairstyle from the screen, does the image function as a hair catalog?
While it may appear to be the same hairstyle when viewed from different angles, the focus was shifted to individual differences.
I deviated from the established theory and steps, and I cut the hair following my instincts.
What are the evaluations and standards brought by society and ambition
and what are the data represented by numbers measuring?
Is it possible to break away from the ingrained perceptions?
A friend pointed out that my questions had one concept in common.
The work that started as a portfolio has transformed, while maintaining the same attitude, into a different entity, functioning as a record of information processing.
Showing that there is no infinite or finite,
just "as it is."
