The work titled “FAKE” (Fig. 49) was created based on the artist’s own experience of false memory. It tells the story of a boy who is afraid of water because he remembers having nearly drowned as a child. However, that memory is false. The one who actually drowned at that time was his friend.

The animation “0:00 A.M.” was created based on my own experiences. Through this animation, I wanted to examine the theme of “time” from two directions. First, the difference between objective time and subjective time. At midnight, a salaryman came home and collapsed at the entrance. In fact, it happened in an instant. But in his imagination, this moment is stretched out, and may become one minute, one hour, or even one day. “One minute is always 60 seconds” — this kind of objective time is absolutely accurate. In contrast, subjective time contains many errors. However, I believe that within those errors lies human imagination. Therefore, through “0:00 A.M.,” I wanted to convey to viewers the fascination of that difference. Next is the “time” that animation itself possesses. The time in animation is created through the relationship between frame and frame. In producing “0:00 A.M.,” I intentionally rearranged the order of the frames without following objective time. By doing so, I hope to construct new relationships, create a new sense of time, and explore a new expressive method that visualizes subjective human thoughts.
