Collectivity 048
DESCRIPTION
Resin coatings on wood panels | 2020
In this series titled “Collectivity”, Gunji uses organic lines formed by the gaps between the different pieces to acknowledge the existence of invisible boundaries that we meet in everyday life. The artist purposefully creates the work with a quality that makes them appear to look like drawings; the resin emphasizing the invisible lines that give the boundaries equal recognition, as the depth, spaces, and the subject matter of the work all come into equal focus. These references can also be seen in traditional Asian art, which the artist was inspired by during the creation of this series.
DIMENSIONS
21 x 19.5 inches
AUTHENTICATION
Signed by artist.
The work comes with a Certification of Authenticity signed by the Co-Founder of Tappan
“The words’ meaning moves from legible to abstract.”

“My works are born from Japanese concept 'Ma', means 'gap', 'space', 'pause' between things, especially the space between opposing things.”

About the Artist
Tadahiro Gunji
Multi-media artist Tadahiro Gunji's abstract works in his Collectivity series focus around his use of organic lines formed by the gaps between the separate pieces, and acknowledge the existence of invisible boundaries. These gaps also represent the relationship between space and matter; each part of the work trying to remind us of the complexity and composition of all particles. Select public collections include: The Museum of Modern Art (Toyama), Rad Hourani Art Foundation, and Italy Fondazione Bevilacqua La Masa.
