滝下 達　個展　「声を聴く」
2022.12.17sat – 12.25sun

今回は木を素材とした大きな彫刻作品から壺や花器など、幅広い作品を展示してます。
滝下達さんは2016年に設計の仕事をやめ、木という素材を選び作家としての活動をはじめました。「今年で7年目です。木という素材を少し分かりかけてきました。だからこそ、今は慎重に木の声を聴く必要があるんです」と語ります。今回の展覧会タイトルはそんな思いから「声を聴く」になりました。
茨城県の実家近くの畑の片隅にテントを張っただけのアトリエで毎日、真摯に木と対峙して作品を作り続けています。 滝下さんの作品は、造形的な彫刻作品、花器、器など、どれも同じ意識の中で制作しているため、用の有るもの、無いものの境界線を感じません。使う方の見立てで色々と変化することが魅力です。

声を聴く
自然の声は耳を澄ますだけではなく、
全力で己の理をぶつけた時に
初めて聴こえてきます。
それを繰り返すうちに、自分が自然と
一つになっていく気がするのです。

TAKISHITA Tatsushi Solo exhibition “Hear the voice”
2022.12.17sat – 12.25sun

This year’s exhibition features a wide range of works, from large sculptures made of wood to vases and flower vases.
TAKISHITA Tatsushi quit his job as an architectural designer in 2016 and began working as an artist, choosing wood as his medium of choice. This is my sixth year,” he said. I’m starting to understand the material of wood a little better now. That is why I need to listen to the voice of wood carefully now. This is why the title of this exhibition is “Hear the voice”.
In his studio, which is just a tent in a corner of a field near his parents’ home in Ibaraki Prefecture, he continues to earnestly confront trees and create works every day.
TAKISHITA’s works, whether figurative sculptures, vases, or containers, are all created with the same awareness, so there is no sense of boundary between what is useful and what is not. The charm of his work lies in the fact that it can be transformed in various ways depending on the user’s perspective.

Hear the voice
The voice of nature is not just something you listen for.
but also when you strike your own reason with all your might.
When you put all your energy into your reason, you will hear it for the first time.
As I repeat this, I feel that I am becoming one with nature.
I feel that I am becoming one with nature.
