Emi Anrakuji "CHASM - Sakeme"
MIYAKO YOSHINAGA art prospects
This event has ended.
Anrakuji creates riveting labyrinth-like photographs combining images of her body and a variety of mundane objects. "CHASM - Sakeme," is a series of images of sensual, faceless bodies of herself reenacting prosaic routines such as washing hair, undressing, and self-examining of her body. They all emerge from a narrow opening in the darkness with the impact and lyricism of a daydream. The small and large prints demonstrate the artist's struggle with the vicissitudes of everyday life through a Zen-like realization of the futility of repeated acts.
