I visited Kanami Ohbuchi’s solo exhibition “Ghost Practice.”
The venue is GALLERY b. TOKYO.

Kanami Ohbuchi is an artist currently enrolled in the Oil Painting research area of the graduate school at Tama Art University.
Her creative concept, which focuses on the relationship between the frame and the painting, is deeply compelling.
When considering the relationship between the frame and the painting,
the treatment of the frame is regarded as “necessary, yet non-existent.”
In Japanese art exhibitions, frames are required in the exhibition space,
but in catalogues they are neatly cropped out and deemed unnecessary.
From this state of affairs, I have chosen to liken the frame to a fictional presence called a “ghost.”
In this exhibition, with the “ghost” as the theme,
I present works that reconstruct the relationship between frame and painting.
I hope viewers will reconsider the relationship between the two.

It was an exhibition that was truly enjoyable to see.
I found myself keenly interested in what the artist’s next variation of motifs might bring.

Kanami Ohbuchi는 현재 Tama Art University 대학원 유화 연구 영역에 재학 중인 작가입니다.
그녀의 제작 콘셉트는 액자와 회화의 관계성에 주목한 매우 흥미로운 것입니다.
액자와 회화의 관계를 생각할 때,
액자의 취급은 “필요하지만 존재하지 않는 것”으로 여겨져 있습니다.
일본의 미술전에서는 전시장에서 액자가 필요로 되지만,
도록에서는 액자가 깔끔히 잘려나가 필요치 않게 됩니다.
그러한 모습에서 저는 “유령”이라는 가공의 존재에 비유하기로 했습니다.
이 전시에서는 그 “유령”을 주제로,
액자와 회화의 관계성을 재구축한 작품을 선보입니다.
꼭 양자의 관계성에 대해 다시금 재고해 주시길 바랍니다.
