I create video works and installations that emerge from a sustained attempt to remain in contact with a reality that resists understanding and exceeds intention.
At the core of my practice lies a question:
What kind of world are we living in?
I do not assume that the world is understandable.
Yet I continue trying to approach it.
Each work emerges from this repeated attempt.
What appears in the works is not a theme or a message, but the coexistence of contradictory qualities — absurdity, cruelty, humor, and urgency.
Tragedy and comedy, change and permanence, exist on the same plane.
Video is not a medium I use to describe the world.
It is a way to remain in relation to a reality that cannot be fully grasped.
Making work is not an act of control, but of keeping this relation open.
I do not seek to approach the world through a single piece.
Rather, I feel that only through the accumulation of images over time can something of the world’s condition be sensed.
Each image adds to this ongoing relation, forming a quiet sediment of experience beyond any individual work.
The stubbornness, awkwardness, and excessive conviction that appear in the works are not strategies or critiques.
They arise from an attitude of staying with the world through a kind of nonsensical love — accepting it without seeking resolution.
For me, making work is not the expression of ideas,
but a place where the time spent facing the world gathers.
The works are traces of having been in contact with reality.
Understanding is never reached.
Yet the attempt continues.
Only this accumulation remains.
