Masahiro Sekiguchi

Sekiguchi is currently enrolled as a doctoral student at the Kyoto City University of the Arts. His works hint at new, innovative tendencies in painting. Sekiguchi's "paintings" are not produced using paintbrush and knife. Rather, he spreads his oil pigments onto resin board and peels them off while still only half-dry in order to make a membrane that he then pastes onto his canvas, using paint instead of regular adhesives. By layering these membranes on top of each other, he ends up with a nominally "flat" work that is in fact composed of multiple strata of colors and surfaces that resemble a sort of organic polyphonic 3D piece.
