shroud.m –
Chaos / Silent
I exhibited two large-scale works in F100 size, pairing Japan's traditional colors of deep navy and vermilion. These pieces, inspired by the concept of “sublimation,” employed a new technique: applying resin over a gold-leaf-sprinkled surface to create a luminous effect, then weaving acrylic rods into a grid pattern atop it. This innovative approach earned me an award.
