Shun Kataoka “Life Works”

The dense circle of time observed in the narrow space of a garden. My grandfather had tended to his garden—growing vegetables, cutting weeds, watering regularly—for more than half a century. But something changed about the time he approached his 80th birthday. Weeds appeared, and with them the endless change brought about as part of their cycle of growth and withering. No matter what my grandfather tried to cultivate, the weeds provided the dominant color of the garden. The garden was a place of two intersecting forces: the cultivating hand of my grandfather and the freedom of the plants. I began to photograph each single seed, each single leaf in his garden, as if trying to catalogue them. Life Works" is a series of photographs taken over the past 13 years. This exhibition commemorates the publication of a photo book that compiles 11 years of his work.
