particle

2022 / 4 min 47 sec / Experimental

[Overview]
This work visualizes physical and emotional pleasure through moving particles.
A website was created where anyone can set the size, color, and amount of particles to show their own sensations.
The registered sensations are then screened as moving images.

I became interested in how other people feel pleasure—what brings them joy, and how that joy feels to them. This led me to the idea of “making joy visible.”
Both mental and physical joy cannot truly be shared with others; they belong only to each person.
Through this work, I came to feel that this is exactly why our personal joys should be valued.
