Twilight Zone tire-plant -proposal (2007)

Twilight Zone tire-plant -proposal (2007)

After developing land, 4000 old tires overlay the area. Though the ground is covered with the black tire completely, through the holes of the tires plants and trees will grow and the green will flourish out of the black.
 Holes of the tires breathe and will be reborn to be a new existence like skin that connects the sky and the ground.
The number of tires disposed in Japan amounts to 1,000,000,000 per year. 40% of them are burnt as energy and 30% is recycled as a reusable resource.

twilight zone tyre-plant 2007
​古タイヤは国内で年間1億本もの量を消費破棄されている。
タイヤの内に土を詰め込んで強固の構造体とするアースシップの手法を用いてタイヤを積み上げる。
時間の経緯と共に土に眠っていた種子や苗が成長し草木は空へと向かい始める。
4000本もの古タイヤの黒い塊と自然の緑とが、穴によって呼吸しあい、
ゲートのように過去ー未来、自然ー人工をつなぎ合わせる媒体者となっていく。
