■ Start from creating unique photographs

Hello! It is the main creator, Kujo Itsuki!

This site is a Contemporary Art project that exhibits works on the theme of the relationship between the ‘One and its Duplications’…though I think it’s pretty hard to understand and explain.

The beginning of this project was when I was young, and said, “Let’s take a unique picture”. Then group of works on the theme of the relationship between “One and its Duplications” was created without being aware.

So if you read the story in that order, I’m sure you’ll get the whole of it.

I hope you keep up with me!

Because the relationship between the ‘One and its Duplications’ increases its importance toward the present and the future. – It’d become the key to all of us.

Artist Statement

■ Photographic and Graphic

I regularly update my photographic work as a demonstration and application. And for convenience, the photographic work is divided into two types: [Photographic] and [Graphic].

At first glance, however, the graphic work [Photographic], the work that can only be seen in the photograph on the contrary [Graphic] and may be confused.

This classification is the difference between ‘Contemporary Art’ and ‘Design’ in my opinion.

Because those works are more meaningful as the result that the contempory atmosphere was recorded when the pictures were shot and works were created, I label them [Photoraphic], which is assumed they are photograph work of ‘Contemporary Art’.
On the contrary, [Graphic] is work that emphasizes beauty and designed aspects such as the color and form of the photography object, which is assumed as ‘Design’.

By the way, with regard to ‘Contemporary Art’ and ‘Design’, they will be handled in the item of ‘Art and Photography’ in the conceptual work page.

祭り – Graphic

January, 2019

This is the bustle of the new year around Ise Jingu Shrine. Because Ise Jingu shrine is a genealogy of the national Shinto, it is deeply related to the Showa era. In the past Showa, the main concern for the military men who wielded power was “Defense of National Body”. However, it is not transmitted at all mysteriously whether the “National Body ” meant concretely. What was it all about, I wonder?…

岐路 – Photographic

August, 2016

There is nothing other than the separation of road however, long term time separation gradually persuades people to mention that this place is a kind of landmark, or in other word, the ‘Symbol’. In the meantime, Meteoroscape is not landmark photography. So, of course these photographs are not made to show that, though what I tried to create is the photographs of ‘Separation of the age’…

Monument – Photographic

January, 2012

To take scenery photographs, especially Meteoroscape, is a kind of ‘craze’. Therefore, it can be said that it’s-only-a-joke. Who the hell need them in those severe circumstances? But this is my opinion; You have the right to watch the beautiful side anytime, if you do not neglect the ugry side…

Photographic Works

■ Transfer as performance

In this project, after taking up the common recognition that there is no substantial value in the infinitely replicable thing, we dare to take action of the transferring “photographic work” as performance, which appears to such a thing, so that we show you the conceptual work [relationship between the one and its duplications]. Although the transfer process may seem strange from the existing approach, it is critically a necessary effort for us to be “individual” for the present age and the future when replicable things are to be filled up .
