“Post offices are places where time and memories are always coming and going.
They enables us to receive news and previously unknown information from a distant location, and to send our own messages to faraway places.
After sending a message, we wait for the recipient to read it.
Bridges exist to make connections. Standing on a bridge, we become aware of our own body and the boundary between people and nature.
In this work, Bridge House, a bridge will span one room to another in an old post office.
As the bridge will allow viewers to imagine and experience various things, it will make a connection between the visible and invisible.
When viewers stand on the bridge, it will sway gently under their weight, and at that moment they will become aware of the existence of their own bodies.
