Naoto Tanno
For its last exhibition for the year 2009, Gallery Teo is pleased to announce a solo exhibition by Naoto Tanno entitled "Breath".
The contrast between artificial lights cast by LEDs and buildings drawn with a straight and simple traversable line makes for a cold inorganic world.
"When I walk the streets at night, I see artificial lights in which a person seems to be breathing, quietly but strongly. My feeling is that if natural light, such as sunlight or fire, comes from God, the lights on these buildings or in the street are made by human beings who try to reach God. But the breathing is subtle, and you will never hear it unless you try to listen carefully. You can feel various emotions from the light only by being sensitive and imaginative.
On display are Tanno's new works. Everyone is cordially invited to the opening reception which will be held on the 4th of December from 17:00.
