Higuchi Seiya
Higuchi Seiya is an artist who has primarily worked with photography and video. Through his practice, he has humorously explored contemporary modes of photography and human relationships, particularly in the context of social media.
In this exhibition, "Headrest Theater," he presents an installation set in a post-human world where puppets, having acquired life, mimic human behavior and go about their daily lives.
Blending elements of video games, film, and photographic aesthetics, the work features these puppets awkwardly — yet uncannily — performing human-like gestures, thereby evoking the role of photography as a medium of "record" and memory.
