Bunpei Kado @ Roppongi Art Night 2019
2019/05/22
Bunpei Kado will participate in the art festival "Roppongi Art Night 2019" at Roppongi for 2 days on May 25 (Sat) and 26(Sun), 2019. (For available works of Kado, please visit artist page of Art Front Gallery: Click here)
“Sleep” is an outdoor installation that consists of a global jungle, a tricycle, and a sand castle. Bright balloons connected to the equipment gently inflate and deflate as if they are breathing, and its lights flicker in a slow constant rhythm, suggesting the subtlety of life. The soft sounds of piano and a daytime playground are reminiscent of the youth’s presence and vitality. The work alludes to the absence of children in parks due to the decreasing birthrate and change in how they play.
