アジアの一大リゾート地のバリ島で、観光客に知られることのないTPA(テペア)と呼ばれる東南アジア特有の広大なゴミ山に、天と地、2方向から赴くプロジェクト。チャーターした観光用ヘリには美しい海を周遊してきたエリイが、地上にはゴミ収集車をヒッチハイクしてきた水野がいる。両者は上空と地上で出会い、しばしの再会を手を振って楽しんだあと、エリイは1枚のビニール袋をゴミ山に投げ捨てた。ゴミ拾いの人たちは、広大なゴミ山からビニール袋を選り分け、それを売ることで生活費を稼いでいる。ヘリが去ったあと、水野は、1週間ほど仕事をともにしてきた彼らと、エリイが落としたビニール袋を回収、さらにインスタレーションの素材として大量のゴミを彼らから購入した。Chim↑Pom内の格差を国際サイズへと大袈裟にスケールアップさせたこのプロジェクトは、観光地を利用する先進国の人々の姿をゴミに転化した立体作品と、リゾート地の実状を捉えた映像作品として発表された。
2008
For this project, Chim↑Pom went to Bali - one of the most popular resorts in Asia - but for the gigantic field of garbage piles called TPA. Although unknown to tourists, TPA is unique to Southeast Asian countries, and Chim↑Pom approached the location from both the sky and the ground. On a tourist helicopter was Ellie enjoying a flight over the beautiful ocean, and on the ground was Mizuno who hitchhiked garbage trucks to get to the location. After they enjoyed a brief meeting between the sky and the ground by waving their hands at each other, Ellie dumped a plastic bag from the helicopter into the garbage pile. People who sort the garbage earn their living by selling plastic bags picked from this enormous mountain of garbage. After the helicopter flew away, Mizuno worked side by side with the people from TPA for about a week. He eventually found the bag Ellie dumped and also bought a large amount of garbage back to use as installation materials. The project shows the disparity between Chim↑Pom members in an exaggerated way to compare the situation with the real world, with an installation work that uses garbage as a figure to represent developed countries and a video work that captures the actual happenings at the resort site.
