My Life / マイ・ライフ

Description

This work was started in 1967 as a documentation of Nakajima’s life. The footages were edited to comprise a piece for the first time in 1974, in time to show the work to the curator Barbara London, who was visiting Japan. Generations in his family were passed on that year, with Nakajima's mother passing away, and then his child was born. The piece is an installation with two monitors; the left presents his mother and himself, and the right, his child and himself. Nakajima continues to work on the sequels of "My Life" with his grandchild.
1967年から撮影を開始していたが、最初に作品としてまとめられたのは1974年。その時、バーバラ・ロンドンが来日することもあり、作品として編集することにした。1974年は母親が死に、子どもが生まれ、世代が入れ替わった年でもあった。基本的に左モニター(母親と自分)と右モニター(子どもと自分)の、2つのモニターによるインスタレーション展示。その後、孫が登場する『マイ・ライフ』の続編を作っており、今後は左モニター(子どもと自分)と右モニター(孫)という形でスライドして、「母親と自分」のパートはフェードアウトしてゆく予定。まだ50年しか経っておらず、完成は100年後になるだろう。(CCJ作家インタビュー2018)
