“見ることが主題であるこの一連の作品群は、石の浮遊感を演出することで、写真表現のカタルシス「決定的瞬間」をあざ笑う。[…]この土俵では、様々な綱引きが勝敗のつかない「交換、横滑り」というかたちで行われている。まるでハーフパイプに似た土俵。それは長期プロジェクトのひとつの結実した形として、多義的にバージョンを変えて順次リリースされる。”
(Gottingham「ハーフパイプ──あるバージョンとしてのWYSASSS」『WYSASSS』)
”写真が最も「再現できない」のは被写体のスケール感である。[…]佐藤は、「ノンスケール」の作品を通して、そのように不断に大小するスケール感を「物資」として扱っている。[…]ノンスケールは決して「スケールを欠いた」ものではない。不断に大小する可塑的な「スケール感」そのものなのである。それは観念的な「物質」である。”
(原田裕規「物質としてスケール感を扱う方法」『WYSASSS』)
"actually, the work’s name speaks for itself. the acronym WYSASSS − as you well definitely not have guessed it − stands for when you see the acrylic to see a stone and a stone."

About
Sato Takuma's research work focuses on the “alternative architecture possibility”. His subject matter is mainly architecture in a broad sense, Sato gives works the results he obtains through the process of “self-reference”. Selected projects include WYSASSS (2012-), the series of studies on the relationship between "seeing" and “image” in architecture.
