Architect Sato Kengo, who presented his first solo exhibition “Sato Kengo-Enclosure and Meddling” in 2018, “Sato Kengo Exhibition Group Cavities and Enclosures” in 2022, and the pinhole camera installation “Mask for Association” at Art Fair Tokyo in 2023, has consistently produced pinhole cameras.

In this third exhibition, we will be showing mainly three-dimensional works, including a new pinhole camera and mirror objects used for photography, as well as drawings and collages, in addition to silver halide photographs taken with pinhole cameras, which are both a camera and a subject, and printed by the artist himself.

Currently, he divides his time between Otama Village in Fukushima Prefecture and the Tokyo metropolitan area, and engages in a variety of activities centered on architectural design. Sato Kengo's essay “About the Earth: Considering Architecture from India” is distributed monthly on the Toki-no-Wasuremono blog.
