Li Kojin Itagaki solo exhibition "Love and Thirst." INTERVIEW（2/3）

―Mr. Itagaki himself directed the order of the work and how to display it?
 
Well, I thought about the arrangement at the venue and how to see it. Regarding the arrangement, we decided in advance how many such things were in this block, and then how many such things were decided in advance, and then how many such things were drawn, and then the rough was created. Some of them have been changed after arranging them at the venue, but since they are fixed at the time of the Tokyo venue, you can enjoy the same way no matter where you come to.
 
―A big idea was ahead, and it was a method of applying the work to it. Did you have any difficulties regarding your first solo exhibition?
 
This is my first time to be a solo exhibition, but there were some things that were interesting and easy to see when I usually saw pictures at museums, so I felt like I was based on that. This is my first time doing it, but I had experience as a viewer.

―Have you experienced something from the viewer and noticed something?
 
What I thought was good to see is not necessarily the masterpiece of the author. I felt that I experienced the side of the exhibition.
 
―After passing through Tokyo and Nagoya, is there anything you are looking forward to or expected at this Osaka venue?
 
Customers differ depending on the land and the land, so of course I'm looking forward to seeing how those who come to the venue in Osaka will look. I usually do it in two places, Tokyo and Osaka, even at events, but I feel that the atmosphere is different as a skin feeling, so I'm looking forward to the reactions of the people in Osaka.

―What message do you want viewers to receive and how do you enjoy the solo exhibition? 
  
I really hope you can see it freely now. If the author presents something, he is bound there. If you look at it as you like and interpret it, I think there is nothing more than that.
