巨大的花盆坐落在诺东(Noto)铁道旧正院站的铁路旧址上。秋天挑选这些植物是因为它们的颜色。这个作品试图将春天樱花盛开的地方,在秋天变成赏秋叶的胜地。这些花盆是由当地烧酒酿酒厂不再需要的巨型回收罐制成的。艺术家在花盆的侧面画上了与珠洲有关的图像。
Huge flowerpots are situated on the former rail track site of Noto Railway’s Shoin Station. The plants were selected for their colors in autumn. This work is an attempt to make this area, which has beautiful cherry blossoms in spring, a popular spot for viewing autumn leaves in autumn. The pots are made from giant recycled tanks that were no longer needed at a local shochu distillery. The artist has drawn images related to Suzu on the sides of the pots.
Oscar Oiwa (BRAZIL / USA)
油画家将充满故事性和社会讽刺的世界观强有力地表现在画布上。他以独特的幽默和想象力,辗转于圣保罗、东京、纽约等地继续创作。出生于圣保罗,建筑系毕业的作家,在东京的建筑事务所工作,同时作为艺术家活动。获得奖学金后移居纽约,至今仍以美国为据点。大岩经常旅行,在移动的过程中摸索着根植于多种文化的自我认同感。使用严谨的笔触和鸟瞰图式的构图,从新闻报道和网络中寻找社会问题的线索,在仔细调查的基础上拍摄大画面,他的作品有很多粉丝,国内外很多美术馆都收藏了他的作品。

Works of Oiwa, as though veiled over the surface, attract the viewers' perspective into the depth of the plane. His interest in social matters, caught at first in newspapers and articles on internet, will be visualized through elaborative research and drawing process. The finished image, sometimes grandiose and apocalyptic, depicts the life and society with his characteristic sense of humor. Born in Sao Paulo, he graduated from Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism at Sao Paulo University. While working in an architectural studio in Japan where his parents are issued from, he exhibited gradually in artistic events to become an artist. Awarded the grant from Asian Cultural Council and John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, he moved to New York in 2002 where he lives since then. Recently he exhibited in Brazil, USA , France, Belgium , Korea and Japan.
