About this event
SummaryAn exhibition titled "T/CU/CUT" explores the artistic and philosophical significance of the act of cutting through the works of three distinct artists.
Details
The exhibition introduces three artists who create works centered on the theme of "cutting." Before scissors make their cut, a single sheet of paper holds infinite possibilities. The moment the blades touch, new "shapes" and "stories" emerge from the paper. Cutting is described as a fundamental and exhilarating act of weaving a new world, filled with anticipation for unknown beauty. Because the action cannot be undone, it radiates the brilliance of existence imbued with resolve.
Highlights
• OTSUKI Shuhei breathes life into both the cut shapes and the discarded scraps, blurring the line between main subject and afterthought to highlight overlooked important things.
• KOTERA Natsuki creates tens of thousands of silhouettes spontaneously without preliminary sketches, offering endless enjoyment as they take on diverse forms through the viewer's imagination.
• SOGI Kazuaki creates imaginary creatures that are not objective representations but are sharply materialized as microcosms dwelling within the artist's subjective mind.
• The exhibition space serves as a dynamic stage that challenges familiar perceptions and gives rise to new narratives, hoping to make daily life look different upon leaving.
