It’s hard to comprehend Contact, the new installation by Japanese art collective 目 (pronounced Mé), headed by Haruka Kojin, director Kenji Minamigawa, and production manager Hirofumi Masui. Light from a window behind the work dapples sculptural waves with pockets of sunlight, making it appear as if it is actually rippling before your eyes. If it wasn’t for the walls that contain the deep blue piece, one might assume they’ve created a real wave machine inside the Mori Art Museum where the work is currently installed.
The work is a part of Roppongi Crossing, a triennial series of exhibitions that provide an overview of Japan’s contemporary art scene. You can see more works from this year’s presentation of works from 25 artists and collectives on Mori Art Museum‘s website, which founded the exhibition series in 2004. Contact is on view through May 26, 2019. (via Spoon&Tamago)
