Matter/Anti-Matter: Recent Work by Makino Takashi — live event

In work spanning nearly twenty-five years, film/video artist Makino Takashi has mastered the art of superimposition and amorphous abstraction, creating infinitely layered walls of light, immersively oceanic experiences situated at indeterminate points between screen the mind’s eye. In his first Bay Area appearance since 2019, Takasi appears in person to present Microcosmos, Anti-Cosmos and Untitled, a trio of pandemic-era pieces (which include forays into surrealist-inspired graphic collage and spoken word) and the slow-rolling and stirringly emotional 2024 work Constellation, to be presented by live electronics by Makino Takashi himself. Hallucinatory and experiential, Makino creates abstract cinematic worlds immersing the viewer like a grain of emulsion free falling in the corporeality of image forming materials.
