Description
In this exhibition entitled “The museum of plastic nation”, he will develop completely new works based on the two keywords “plastic” and “boys”. Murayama believes that the two words “plastic” and “boy” have common metaphor which are plastically flexible and easily changes shapes or minds by forming force. He also thinks that it is the same case in the part that existence cannot fully be utilized in modern society. Therefore, the artist himself became a “boy” and released or did acrylic paint (plasticize) to unravel being slavery from society, regained plasticized and formative properties, and explored the beauty of the original essence of plastic (boys). One part of the sense of blockage held by young people who are called modern boys can blame society and adults. For those who can only see human and things as a part of the industry, Murayama hopes that we can imagine one aspect of a new future for a series of works spun from this keyword “Plastic/Boy”.
