Artist Takashi Kuribayashis' installation allows the viewer to adopt the guise of a burrowing animal by poking out of holes in the constructed ceiling of an apparent snow covered woodland. The construction of paper explores the role of 'nature' in contemporary Asian art. The work is suggestive of fantastical narratives which to the western viewer attests a Narnian, Witch in the Wardrobe premise. A comparison between western and eastern perspectives concerning a metaphysical nature could present a pertinent dialogue in understanding how cultural conditioning can alter our perceptions. Pursuing artworks that suggest an interrelationship with different types of narrative and folklore could offer interesting insights into questioning aspects of the human condition.
