A viewer-participation-type work where you can see the kaleidoscope when you put your belongings inside the work and look into it. Viewers put their watches, glasses, and other belongings in black, white, and transparent-looking box drawers. And when I look through the upper peephole, the belongings in the drawer are transformed into a kaleidoscope.
Not all belongings are unique, but the combination of belongings is a part of each viewer, and we try to use it to create a figure that only that person can make.
By arranging the inside of the drawer and turning the handle attached to the work, a figure that can only be seen in that moment and that is constantly changing appears every moment. Its beauty seems to praise the viewer themselves.
This work was made when the writer was still studying at university with the aim of becoming a game creator. He came across contemporary art when he began to question the commercial games he produced over the years. However, because I didn't understand contemporary art well at that time, I didn't have much to touch, unlike toys and games, and I felt like someone else's affairs. If I make a work, I thought it would be good if I could think of it as my own. This work gave birth to the future writer's life.
