Shigeno Ichimura Exhibition “Light and Time”

This exhibition will concentrate on his new works from the both series of “Time Compression” and “Silver Monochrome”
On the surface, a number of dots are spread out or gathered, and the images are only made appear by light reflection in “Silver Monochrome”. Light is crucial in visual culture, and having realised that, the world constituting principle of individual-total relationship itself are revealed.
On the other hand in “Time Compression”, iron rust from iron powder paste draws a pattern. In this work he includes a period of time that must have been taken the rust to develop. Subtle difference between the works next to each other implies contingency and relativity of the notion called individuality.

‘Light’ and ‘time’ are the keywords in Ichimura’s works. He goes beyond the border of traditional painting and the act of drawing. Our own emotions and memories are to be drawn out in front of his works.
