The power pulsing at the root of every phenomenon, continuously moving all. Okuyama’s lines and shapes seem to have captured an instant of that ever-changing, hidden flow. Despite their stillness, their organic quality makes you feel a primordial energy. Okuyama continues to endow this prints with a material sense created through carborundum techniques and richly expressive inks. His method, despite being a form of printmaking, yields but one print.
あらゆる事象の根底で行き交い、突き動かしつづける力。その見えざる流れ、さまざまに変容する流れの一瞬を切り取るように掬いあげる奥山の描線やかたちは、静かに佇みつつ、有機的で、根源的なエネルギーを感じさせます。カーボランダム技法によって生まれる物質感と、豊かなインクの表情、そして版画ながら1枚しか刷れない手法で制作を続けています。
