Tetsuya Umeda
Born in 1980 in Kumamoto Prefecture. He lives in Osaka.
Tetsuya Umeda's spatial installations originate in a desire to find art in the most banal of objects, and to learn how to take seriously details that at first appear insignificant. Every time Umeda creates a work he responds to the characteristics of the space in which the exhibition is to be held, and usually he finds his materials at the venue. The work "Was Moving at First" (2012) realised for this exhibition is no exception. Umeda's works are composed of everyday household objects that, in another context, would likely be ignored. They involve light and sound, change across time and space, and could be described as unified compositions built on the transformation of familiar objects.
