YUTAKA NOZAWA

YUTAKA NOZAWA, Mountain range#00, 2023. Video installation. Courtesy Kayokoyuki.

Working across installation, photography, and video, Yutaka Nozawa depicts humorous, staged situations where overlapping images and objects coexist and point to each other in a kind of self-referential loop. A series of printed photos mounted in acrylic frames, for example, depicts fragments of those same frames within the images, like visual riddles that challenge the viewer to decipher them. Nozawa’s multimedia installations, on the other hand, often contain complex arrangements of objects alongside printed photos that depict those objects within a three-dimensional installation space, producing a mishmash of referents and perspectives that provocatively frustrate any attempt at a cohesive interpretation. This exhibition will feature a selection of photographs, paintings, and videos by the artist.

Kayokoyuki was founded by Kayoko Yuki in Tokyo in 2011 and has occupied its current converted warehouse space in Komagome since 2015. The gallery supports artists who use ephemeral imagery derived from objects in their everyday lives to reflect on their experiences and create works that propose new ways of coexisting at a time of increasing social polarization.

Kayokoyuki participates in international art fairs, such as Paris Internationale and NADA Miami, and operates a second space, Echo, Cologne, in collaboration with three other international galleries. Represented artists include Nobuya Hitsuda, Kenji Ide, Yohei Imamura, Shiho Kagabu, Kazuki Matsushita, Ayako Ohno, Emi Otaguro, Michi Suwa, Daichi Takagi, Masanori Tomita, and Evelyn Taocheng Wang.
