Mamoru Tsukada

In the world of Mamoru Tsukada, photography exists as a medium to relate himself to the world and its invisible structures. In Spectre, the subject matter is not apparent at first glance – we see bold splashes of color, abstract shapes…

He explains:

“The new works ‘SPECTER’ have been created using a humorous and physical way putting masks over a camera lens. I use this technique in order to create an image of the inside and outside of masks at same time, in two dimensions. Front is back and back is front. This work is to reveal the ‘optic nerve’ rather than sight, which reflects and challenges how blind people recognize the world.”
