Motomichi Nakamura’s artistic versatility is epitomized in his piece titled Cannonballs; the paradoxical nature of inflatables as an artistic medium, filled with weightless air, yet capable of creating a substantial sense of presence and weight.
The centerpiece of this installation consists of eight large balloons portraying the faces of imaginary monsters, varying in degrees of menace. These faces are accompanied by the projection of other ominous characters onto the surrounding walls. Nakamura aims for the characters he creates, to be nuanced entities and multifaceted creatures that can be simultaneously monstrous and enchanting, conflictual and playful.
Nakamura aims for the characters he creates, to be nuanced entities and multifaceted creatures that can be simultaneously monstrous and enchanting, conflictual and playful.
We can perceive Motomichi’s work as if it were a mirror, reflecting upon ourselves as we examine how we perceive his characters that gaze back at us. It is up to the audience to ponder the reason for their presence and the intentions of these creatures.
The answers to these questions unveil the myriad meanings encapsulated in Motomichi’s characters, offering a fascinating perspective on the complexity of our interactions with the world created by the artist.
