To Whom It May Concern: Silence in Photography by Tomoko Nagakawa
In conversation with Luke Newbould
28 April, 2023
Using analogue printing techniques on specialist papers, Tomoko Nagakawa creates visually minimalist yet imaginatively expansive objects that serve as a suggestive launchpad for open interpretation. Exploring the awakening of our unconscious from silence, To Whom It May Concern is a sensitive reflection of her journey and an act of celebration of the lives around her. Encompassing a physical relationship with photography, each image becomes a result of a slow and unique printing process. The images do not work as a narrative but instead are suspended as abstractions, open to sensations and interpretations.
