iamas in tokyo
 

Hideyuki Oda (Artist)
Largely produces paintings. From the 90's, began creating surface artworks and animation using CG, presenting primarily in Kyoto, Osaka and Tokyo museums and galleries.

Things to see, things to show
In this time of widescreen, high-precision televisions, where video overflows Internet screens and one can take video and music anywhere anytime with handsets and iPods, the things to see have expanded—and yet there are people who vainly create animation, just another medium of expression taken for granted. On the other hand, there are also those who make full use of CG technology, carving out a new field that may revolutionize tomorrow's video expression. Regardless that "things to see" are becoming more lightweight, they are immersed in our expression and we will introduce works at IAMAS that stoically pursue technological advances while continually contributing to "things to see, things to show."

This is a high resolution animation work produced based on Kaoru Izumi's music, Tsutsumareru jikan. Considering high-definition's characteristic ability to clearly display lines, I attempted modeling through an accumulation of drawing animation "lines".
