Shigeru Oyatani "The Third Plane"
Kim Foster Gallery
This event has ended.
Raised in Japan and residing in New York for several years, Oyatani has been inspired to create hybrid works that touch on both Eastern and Western traditions. His use of color, composition, form and subject matter are a fine blending of his natural inclination to combine cultures and their visual vocabulary.
Through numerous build-ups of thin layers of oil paint, Oyatani’s work combines elements of abstraction and representation, pattern and grid, and surface and illusion. Upon further inspection, several layers or ‘planes’ begin to emerge, creating an almost hyper real space where the 2nd, 3rd and 4th dimensions collapse into altogether entirely different realities.
