By photographing a mirror with clay attached to it from a blind spot, I primarily used the technique of creating a single space or object by combining the reflected world and the clay, with the mirror’s surface serving as the boundary. In Japanese health and physical education textbooks, it is written that women “become rounded.” This description evokes the image of stones gradually smoothed and rounded by a flowing river. We interact with the world by selectively using the “clean parts of our distorted mirrors” and “walls.” However, distortions that exceed a certain frame are often deemed “wrong” or “bad.” It is our individual “positions” that transform the mirror of the mind into a wall and the wall into a mirror.
