lovely absentees

2024
texts from the exhibition.
I noticed that the street trees in front of the convenience store I always stop at before getting on the highway had been cut down without me realizing. Upon observing the remains, it seems they might have been cut down quite some time ago. I wonder how long ago they were planted. These street trees in the area were once planted at regular intervals, but now there are gaps instead of them. These numerous trees, brought from somewhere for the purpose of enhancing the urban landscape and environment, have slowly changed over time, interacting with laborers and various people who tend to them. I hope to create a time to reflect on this subtle absence and our relation to it.
