TETSUYA UMEDA
UMEDA gets ideas for his works from the environment and the circumstances surrounding the exhibition space. Even spaces that at first glance seem to be nothing special, can turn out to have countless characteristics, found in the space above the ceiling or the space behind the wall - or in the position of lighting system and its structure, the material of the wall, and construction of the building, etc. It is from such dialogue with a specific space that UMEDA creates his work. He often work in spaces not normally used for exhibition and make use of found objects like daily tools and waste scraps in elaborate systems of cause-and-effect relationships. Powered by gravity, wind, centrifugal force or falling objects UMEDA’s work keeps the situation unstable and unpredictable.
UMEDA lives and works in Osaka.
