DORKBOT VIENNA #8: Tetsuya Umeda: May 17, 2009 7 PM @ Metalab Vienna -
May 17th, 2009
Der 5uper.net artist-in-residence Tetsuya Umeda stellt seine Arbeiten im Rahmen des Dorkbot Vienna #8 im wiener Metalab vor.
“Altering fans, televisions, and other everyday appliances, converting their functions into something utterly different, UMEDA creates objets freed from their original meanings. His works, created to suit the spaces in which they will be installed, use utterly familiar, commonplace phenomena, channeled through his clever handiness and unique spatial sensibility, to create mysterious, seemingly impossible sensations. They thereby free one from rigid perceptions constrained by preconceived ideas.
