' Absentee ' is about the temporality of our existence. Centered around Ichida's own body, juxtaposed with everyday objects we normally overlook, the boundary between the figure and man-made objects disappears and blends to evoke an ever-changing state of being. This body of work is an evocative depiction of a sense of detachment, an absence, from self and reality.

“Absentee” deals with the temporality of our existence. Centered on Ichida’s own body, juxtaposed with everyday objects that we usually overlook, the boundary between the figure and the artificial objects disappears and blends to evoke a state of being in constant evolution. This body of work is an evocative representation of a sense of detachment, of an absence, of self and reality.
