Gallery COMMONは2024年4月6日から5月5日まで、アメリカ人アーティストのマシュー・ブラントの日本で初めての個展「little puddles」(小さな水たまりたち)を開催します。オープニングレセプションは4月5日(金)19:00 - 21:00です。
マシュー・ブラント(1982年生まれ、ロサンゼルス)は、予想だにしない素材や技法を取り入れた実験的な写真作品を提示し、写真とは「光沢紙に整然とイメージが印刷されたものである」という固定観念を覆します。例えば、「Lakes and Reservoirs」シリーズでは湖の写真をその湖の水を使って現像し、「Wai’anae」シリーズではハワイの風景が写った写真を地中に埋め、自然に起きる浸食によって島の痕跡を刻み込んでいます。こうしたブラントの作品は、時間的な瞬間を捉えるものであるという写真の限界に挑んでいるとも言えます。
