About the Item
Mitsumasa Kadota’s 色彩の畝 4 (Furrows of Color 4) is an evocative work that embodies his mastery of color, texture, and movement. Created in 2016, this piece belongs to his series exploring the rhythm of color through the materiality of paint, using acrylic and carborundum on cotton to achieve a striking interplay of depth and fluidity. The result is a surface that appears to shift and ripple, inviting viewers into a dynamic visual experience.
Kadota’s technique in Furrows of Color 4 is immediately distinctive—rather than applying color in a static composition, he allows it to move organically, creating an effect reminiscent of natural erosion, cascading water, or windblown textures. The use of carborundum, an unconventional material in painting, gives the surface a tactile quality that interacts with light, making the colors shimmer and deepen depending on the viewer’s position.
This approach is not only a testament to Kadota’s technical expertise but also his philosophical exploration of perception—how what we see is shaped by movement, memory, and perspective. The painting’s title, Furrows of Color, further emphasizes this concept, as if the pigments have been carved into the canvas, forming layers of emotion and energy.
Kadota’s works have been featured in prestigious institutions such as the Sezon Museum of Modern Art and have been exhibited in major international venues, including MoMA’s Young Patron Program in New York. His distinctive approach to color and texture places him among the most compelling contemporary painters redefining the possibilities of abstraction.
This particular piece, created in 2016, represents a significant phase in his career where he pushed the boundaries of materiality in painting. The combination of layered acrylic and carborundum results in a surface that is both structured and fluid, making it an engaging addition to any collection.
The painting has an almost kinetic presence—colors seem to stretch and flow across the canvas as if shaped by unseen forces. The vertical movement of the pigments, enhanced by the textured medium, creates a mesmerizing effect where light catches different layers, revealing intricate variations in hue and depth. Tones of yellow, green, ochre, and deep blues intermingle, producing an effect akin to looking through a cascading waterfall or peering into a densely woven tapestry of nature.
In person, the dimensionality of the surface becomes even more apparent, with subtle variations in thickness and texture adding to the immersive quality of the piece. The painting’s size (194 × 162 cm) enhances this experience, making it a work that commands attention while maintaining an organic flow that adapts to its surroundings.
色彩の畝 4 (Furrows of Color 4) is a remarkable work by an artist whose paintings transcend conventional abstraction. With its intricate layering of color and material, it offers an evolving dialogue between the seen and unseen, movement and stillness. For collectors seeking a piece that continually reveals new perspectives, this painting is an exceptional choice.
