在他最新的沉浸式装置中,奥斯卡·奥瓦(Oscar Oiwa,先前)创作了一幅360度的黑白画,填充了充气乙烯气球的空间。《天堂里的奥斯卡·奥瓦》画这短暂的瞬间,阿瓦和他的五个助手花了两个星期和120支记号笔。一根铅笔和一张白纸——没有比这更简单的媒介了。
For his latest immersive installation, Oscar Oiwa (previously) created a 360-degree black and white drawing that fills the space of an inflatable vinyl balloon. The work, Oscar Oiwa in Paradise – Drawing the Ephemeral, took Oiwa and his five assistants two weeks and 120 marker pens to create. Visitors are invited to enter the encapsulating drawing to fully experience Oiwa’s imagined environment, which is composed of dark patches of forest, winding pathways, and a sky filled with high-contrast swirls.“I’ve always enjoyed drawing, which I consider the most basic way of expressing myself visually,said Oiwa in a press release regarding the large-scale work. “A pencil and a blank sheet— there is no simpler medium than that.”The exhibition is presented at JAPAN HOUSE São Paulo, a venue that showcases traditional Japanese culture through a modern lens. Drawing the Ephemeral runs through June 3, 2018. You can watch the making of the massive drawing in the short video below.
