Etude: Breeze (The Architectural Model)
2025
For Maki Umehara, building and architectural model almost remind her the living conditions in her childhood. Since the end of 1990s, betweeness around art and the architectural model has been embodied in her work. The use of model as small work in different ways suggests a memory, including her dream and the others' dream. After she has made a series of the architectural models with photos regarding topics between fiction and reality throughout a year (2002-03), both installation and the models entitled〈Breeze〉were created for the exhibition in Germany (2006).
