Sound-Sound #1
Apr 20, 202400:11:42Tap to summarizeSound-Sound is a podcast about art, involves conversations and filled with noise. It’s the noise made by a string of loose thoughts and ideas yet to become a longer piece of writing. I also hope it shines a light on where people work, live, parade, play, and argue, even. For now thought, I will keep things short and sweet with three exhibitions and some soul music. ThanksTakedo Fumitsugu “100 no me ha kōtai de nemuru (100 eyes take turns sleeping)” at Room_412. An intense exhibition squeezed into the former (windowless) apartment cum gallery. A year’s worth of imagery, two looped films and a zine titled “Compression Sustainer” describe the world as hard to forget even when you would like to. Instead, images linger like a nightmare or persist like a bad dream. They stay with you and the exhibition’s strength comes from the slow decay of old Shibuya and a venue haunted to the edge of existence.Takedo Fumitsugu “100 no me ha kōtai de nemuru (100 eyes take turns sleeping)”April 17~28th11:00 to 18:00 (Wednesday–Sunday)http://room412.jpAs part of Onsen Confidential, a gallery co-share programme based in Tokyo hosting galleries from overseas, SVIT Gallery from Prague presents Habima Fuchs “ASAHI (Rising Sun)” at AOYAMA|MEGURO featuring Jiří Kovanda, Lukas Jasanský, Martin Polák, and Tomas Absolon.

Soon it would be too hot
Oct 24, 202300:59:45Tap to summarizeGabriel Hartley’s recent painting show "Mosslight" at Hagiwara Projects (August 26–September 23) ended with Gabriel, painter Reina Sugihara, and I asking the question: what does it mean to paint. We’ve all called London home at some point. While Gabriel and Reina now have studios in different parts of Tokyo, thoughts of British weather and London sky remain vivid albeit different; doom-laden, hopeful, transformed. Gabriel’s paintings offer a different way of looking at or peeking through the iconography of each city at the end of a summer best described as impossibly hot. The following is an edited version of that conversation looking back at Gabriel’s work including his painted polaroids offering a glimpse of his studio, as seen above behind pigment, and the paintings it produced.
