The origin of “space”
20 x 30 inches
Platinum print
Signed and numbered edition of 5
In our daily space recognition, information composed of multiple elements such as direction, distance, shape and size is perceived as space. The minimum element to visually perceive space is dots and lines. Mathematical “points and lines” are also the starting point of science, and are conceptual in common with the number 0 and do not exist as substances. This is because, even if it looks like a dots or a line, it looks like a “point” becomes a circle and a line becomes a surface.
On the other hand, our naked eyes can “find” dots and lines from anywhere in our daily lives, which appear at the intersection of two surfaces.This work is a landscape that gives perspective to the “corners” that are familiar to you but are not appreciated.
For me, “dots and lines” are the origin of space and the starting point of beauty.
Taken with a 35mm digital camera inside the Guggenheim Museum in New York. The resolution of the photography was technically broken down, and the particles which appeared were printed by using the chemical elements platinum and palladium using platinum printing*
*Platinum Printing
A photo printing technique using the precious metals platinum and palladium which was invented in the late 19th century.
Kenji Aoki’s creative endeavor started from studying drawings with his uncle, craft designer Mosuke Yoshitake, later enrolling at Kuwasawa Design School and learning the Bauhaus design philosophy, The Non-Objective World conceived by Kazimir Malevich. Driven by the concept of “Zero,” art such as Zen and spiritual philosophy in the Orient called “no object,” Kenji began to seek “non-object” from tangible things through photography. Since 1991, Kenji has been active as a still-life photographer, and his delicate and robust style with a unique color sense and minimalism was highly regarded in the industry. In 2008, Kenji started working with NY based photographer agent, Michel Ash and moved to New York in 2010. Since then, he has photographed for renowned publications such as The New York Times Magazine and TIME. and awarded The New York Times Magazine Photographs (edited by Kathy Ryan) and American Photography.
