Hope and dream light sculpture – Makoto Tojiki
Artist makoto tojiki has developed ‘hope and dream’, an illuminated, kinetic sculptural installation for luxury beauty brand clé de peau beauté
The japanese based sculptor created his work which comprises of nine units spanning 7 x 20 meters of the darkened gallery space.

As the expanse of moving light continues, each of the additional components picture the animal in a distinct moment of flight.
‘Sometimes an object appears differently from how we remember it to be. yet, this is often not because the object itself has changed, but it is caused by a change
in the observer’s perspective. this change may also be related to, and expressive of, the object’s essence. my interest is in exploring, ‘when, and for what reason,
does a person’s perception of an object change?’ through my work, I seek to stimulate how people see objects. by extracting its essence, I seek to express
that which lies at an object’s core.‘ -Makoto Tojiki

Kenetic Sculpture, BMW Museum
The Kinetic Sculpture is a metaphorical translation of the process of form-finding in art and design. 714 metal spheres, hanging from thin steel wires attached to individually-controlled stepper motors and covering the area of six square meters, animate a seven minute long mechatronic narrative. In the beginning, moving chaotically, then evolving to several competing forms that eventually resolve to the finished object, the Kinetic Sculpture creates an artistic visualisation of the process of form-finding in different variations.
