VOLTA NY 松原健 "Winter Dreams"
DAILY SERVINGに掲載されました

Volta NY: MA2 Gallery
MA2 Gallery displayed new and recent work by Ken Matsubara, which was recently part of Winter Dreams, a February solo show at the Tokyo gallery. Matsubara's Winter Dreams series is defined by his continued exploration of memory as both a collective and personal phenomenon.
MA2 Gallery's booth was filled with small-scale mixed media works that invited intimate viewing. At first glance, many of the objects could be readily encountered in the everyday world. Purposefully weathered, framed shadow boxes and mirror boxes mysteriously presented moving images of simple motifs. In Winter Dreams - Table, a ghostly, empty table covered by a white table cloth stands alone and spins. Likewise, Winter Dreams - Cloud reveals an emanating cloud of smoke beneath a faded, silvered surface. The artist's emphasis on mirrors, in the form of aged, reflective surfaces points to the essence of memory as it is formed by the often hazy impression of experiences and dreams on our consciousness. The open-ended nature of the images allowed them to be experienced by many viewers. Finally, in Bottom of Buddha's Hands, two shiny hands holding a crystal ball connect the concept of memory to humanity's beginnings.
