Yamamoto Masao: Tomosu
Overview
On display in our viewing room will be a selection of newly released silver gelatin prints from Yamamoto Masao’s ongoing Tomosu series, as well as unique ambrotypes, wet collodion plates varnished by the artist and floated within handmade frames. Tomosu, meaning to “to put a little light in the darkness,” evinces Yamamoto’s quiet interest in the human form and the natural world, and the ambrotypes’ process, reliant on chance, serve as a nice complement to the Richard Misrach and Meghann Riepenhoff works hanging in our other galleries.
