Akiko and Masako Takada | Japão

 

 

Rain storm
It is a scene of a rainy urban city and it changes to a rainstorm. There is a tragic sense of narrative in the vanishing city and yet the scene is at the end contained within a fictional space of a small glass.

Freeze
Plastic packages are transformed into a cityscape. Gradually it becomes frosted and frozen over. The objects, in fact, have been covered by salt water and crystallized. In other words, the scene captures the moment of natural transformation.
