JR EAST meets ART ＠Takanawa Gateway Fest

Born 1980, Miyagi. Lives and works in Kanagawa. Kano’s interest lies in the diversity of worlds sought out by the individual perceptions of various organisms, based on Jakob von Uexkull’s theory on Umwelt, and he creates installations that transition beyond the intention of the artist by virtue of the involvement of birds and plants, and also creates sculptures and drawings. The particular mixture of macro and micro that was present in earlier works is further honed, and the works encompass a wide range of materials: branches and leaves, tree nuts, animal horns and tusks collected from several locations. His recent solo exhibitions include "Abstract maps, Concrete territories" (Moerenuma Park, Sapporo, 2013), "Clear signs, Vivid tones" (HARA MUSEUM ARC, Gunma, 2012), and "Naturplan" (Bloomberg Pavilion Project Museum of Contemporary Art, Tokyo, 2011).

Tetsuro Kano has arranged sites as if drawing onto spaces using combinations of plants and natural objects with glass, ceramics, and ready-made products like nets and flags. For this exhibit, his installation appears in the area around Oginohama Lighthouse. The outdoor works change due to the surrounding environment, becoming complete by incorporating animals and viewers into the natural environment. Kano has also focused on the difference between the day and nighttime landscapes. He created this series of works while imagining the nocturnal sculpture that the creatures living in the forest see under the moonlight and the flash of the lighthouse.
