Kazuki Umezawa 梅沢和木
Born in Saitama, Japan 1985, Lives and works in Tokyo.
Umezawa has created a unique pictorial surface using his bricolage-like method, collecting and reconstructing images diffused on the Internet. And His expression is also based on the long-standing worries of fear of losing consciousness through dying. His recent exhibition include a solo exhibition "Image, Aroundscape, Particle" RICH ART GALLERY, Tokyo (2021), "Black Omen"Cashi,Tokyo(2020), "Tokyo Pop Underground"Jeffrey Deitch gallery,USA(2019), "Weavers of Worlds—A Century of Flux in Japanese Modern/Contemporary Art" Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo,Tokyo(2019), and "HYPER LANDSCAPE KAZUKI UMEZAWA × TAKU OBATA" Watari-Um Museum,Tokyo(2018).
1985年出生於日本埼玉縣,現生活和工作於東京。
梅沢2008年於武藏野美術大學影像專業學系畢業。他從網上收集各種人物圖片並化為碎片重新構造進行創作,他將人物的身體部位分割成小塊,幾乎沒有保留手臂、頭髮或眼睛的特徵。這些元素以異常的密度壓縮和重疊,創造出一個像徵資訊超載的網絡空間。他的作品並不注重個別部分,而是呈現一個整體的空間;他的表達也是基於長期以來對死亡失去知覺的擔憂。
