This item is one of SHUN OKUBO&#8217;s long-selling items, with diamond-encrusted square pillars and golden-ratio square plates arranged to hide the sphere of the main body. The name BEHIND THE MASK was given to the item because of the act of &#8220;hiding the sphere&#8221;, as the name implies, and BEHIND THE MASK is also the title of a famous song by the music group YMO. It was first recorded on YMO&#8217;s album SOLID STATE SURVIVOR, released in 1979, and was based on a song created entirely by hand by the late Ryuichi Sakamoto for a Seiko commercial. Therefore, &#8220;BEHIND THE MASK&#8221; is also a representative song of YMO and Ryuichi Sakamoto, and it was and still is a great honour for SHUN OKUBO that someone related to Mr Sakamoto purchased this item before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The design of the concealed sphere was intended to express the Japanese sense of aesthetics, the depths of the Japanese sense of beauty, the anecdote of Plato listening from behind the curtain, and the image of the hidden Buddha, whose inside can never be seen. We have heard the Japanese say that they find the divine in the &#8220;presence&#8221;, and it can be said that the design incorporates the &#8220;presence&#8221; that stimulates our aesthetic sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Along with BRANCUSI and LOUISE BOURGEOIS, Ryuichi Sakamoto is an artist who has had a great influence on SHUN OKUBO, and I am sure that his story will often appear in THE STORY in the future, but today I feel something like relief that I am able to write about BEHIND THE MASK. I feel a kind of relief to be able to write about BEHIND THE MASK today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have this item in shop, so if you are in the area, we would be very happy if you could visit our shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">SHUN OKUBO<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SHUN
