Description
The Artothèque d’Angers is hosting artist Keita Mori for a solo exhibition. For this occasion, he has been invited to create a site-specific work within the Artothèque’s space. This installation will be accompanied by a selection of works on paper and a screening of his video piece *Strings*. Focusing on the use of line, Keita Mori uses thread to construct a landscape that exists somewhere between construction and collapse. Straight lines, curves, and breaks thus form fragile structures that reveal the tensions and dysfunctions of the landscape.
In his series *Bug Report*, the artist uses thread as a building material. Glue-mounted on paper or directly on the wall, this network of lines gives shape to compositions in which he explores the notion of error, thereby bringing to light malfunctions and ruptures. In his video work—inspired by the traditional Japanese game *ayatori*—three-dimensional architectures take shape and come to life.
