Tadahiro Gunji creates works that exist at the intersection of painting and sculpture, exploring the tension between opposing elements. His practice is deeply rooted in the Japanese concept of ma, the idea that the space between things—whether objects, events, relationships, or colors—is not empty but filled with potential and meaning.Influenced by the philosophy of Sen no Rikyū, Tadahiro interprets beauty in the empty spaces of a composition, reflecting wabi aesthetics. His pieces reveal invisible emotions through the dynamic interplay of geometric forms and organic lines, merging sculpture with painting.Tadahiro draws inspiration from the aging process of resin, examining how the material interacts with its environment and reflects it. His work celebrates Japanese elegance and simplicity while juxtaposing artificial and natural elements, inviting viewers to engage with the spaces and tensions that exist between them.
