Moriyama-san’s house is lovely, bright, and hearty but seems somehow frail, urging you to feel sentimental.
(Riko Kinoshita “On this Oscillating Planet” )
A note on the exhibition titled “faint thrill” by artist Riko Kinoshita, which was held for only nine days in February 2024. Photographed by Yurika Kono.
Riko Kinoshita creates and arranges her works to suit the environment while handling familiar materials, and by developing them in a certain time and space, she has presented them as a device for the artist and the viewer to perceive the world, encompassing changes of physical conditions and phenomena.
The “Moriyama House” in Ota-ku, Tokyo, is known as one of architect Ryue Nishizawa’s masterpieces. The artist visited this place, and the exhibition “faint thrill” was realized through the friendship between Kinoshita and Moriyama-san who lives in the house. Moriyama-san spends almost all the time in his residence, which seems like a secluded hideaway while still feeling the presence of people. Surrounded by a bulk of records and books, he enjoys poetry and art, and rearranges small antiques, ephemeras, and objects in his room. The time accumulated in this beautiful space seems to float and connect to the other side of this world.
This book is not only an archive of the exhibition, but also includes the sort of atmosphere of Moriyama House that inspired the artist, so that the day in this house may be kept forever and recall itself repeatedly, containing a secret and precious time within it.
