Genius Loci Weimar 2017

About 500 years ago, the movement to rebuild the direct path to the faith in Christ in the ballooned incrustation of Church. The Herderkirche tells us the story of the thorny path; the faith speaks far more subtly than the money. We’d like to etch the poise of the city as “the city of the mirror.” Its dynamics can represent the model of what we hope for life.

今からちょうど500年前、膨張し形骸化した宗教を信仰の手に取り戻す運動が始まった。やがてその大きなうねりは国を越えて、人々は金ではなく信仰によって救われることになったのだとヘルダー教会は語ってくれる。この教会が持つ記憶を、記号化された都市の姿《鏡の街》として顕現させたいと思う。そこでは、あるいは文化、あるいは芸術、あるいは都市の姿そのものが堆く構築されまた解体される。そしてまた次の何かを構築するためにうごめき続けるのである。鏡の街で起こる出来事はそのまま私達の生きる世界にかつてあり、今あり、これからもあるだろう。果たしてこの律動は、私達が押し流されていく明日をどう変えていくのだろうか?

Together with a large scale repairing of Odawara castle in Odawara city, Kanagawa Prefecture, Tokiwagi-Gate Samurai Hall was newly opened on the second floor of Tokiwagi-Gate at the Keep Square in the Odawara Castle Site Park.  In its exhibition room, an exhibition specialized in Japanese battle gear, such as armor and swords, is held, and at the same time the resolve of Bushido and the beauty of Japanese battle gear are introduced.  And in the permanently facilitated projection mapping theater, “Hanautsuyoroi”, armor-cut-into-flower, is rolling.
The story runs reminiscing about the past battle, whose remains are solidified in the armor.  A warrior fought a duel with an enemy, and the enemy lay dead on a road, turning into cherry blossoms.  But eventually death would also await the triumphant warrior, and he himself turned into blossoms.  We wanted to show that the fiercer the battle is, the more fragile our life looks.  At the scene of the duel, we took up a graceful carriage of an actor specialized in the swordsmanship into motion-capture, depicting the seasoned motion of a warrior facing the duel.
The picture is projected against the custom-made white armor and a folding screen, and the wall.  By using three sets of projectors, we could reduce the inevitable shadow behind the armor to the minimum, as a result, the primal energy of life exchanged sparkles so vividly around you. This work can lead you to our trial that technology melting into a story can have the power to invite you to the vicarious joys and sorrows of the past.
