one69a (nominated) Rinko Kawauchi Les quarante photographies choisies pour cette exposition proviennent de la série « Utatane » - mot japonais qui définit un état mi-éveillé mi-endormi, rassemblées dans un des livres publiés par l’artiste. Elles témoignent de l’attention extrême que Rinko Kawauchi porte à toutes ces « petites voix qui lui chuchotent depuis son enfance » - selon sa propre expression, et qui sont à l’origine de cet univers intime déployé dans une esthétique singulière. « Utatane » nous donne à voir tout un univers constitué de fragments infimes, d’instants fugaces, qui illustrent la notion de naissance, de vie, de mort, et du temps qui passe. Quelle que soit son humeur, Rinko Kawauchi dit prendre des photos d’une manière aussi naturelle que boire du thé ; elle saisit les choses qui la frappent, que ce soient des insectes, des enfants ou des animaux, des détails anodins et des choses minuscules où la notion d’éphémère est souvent présente.

Min started out as a musician and vocalist, then a student of electronic engineering, before finally discovering photography. He turned to study photography in his late 20’s at the Soon-tae Hong studio, from where he has pursued a successful career in photography. He has been awarded the Dong-A International Photography Salon’s silver medal (1984). Min’s black and white photography often represents nature and the environment; and his pictures aim to capture the essence of the Korean landscape. His photographs also draw references back to traditional Korean and East Asian art and culture, with a resemblance to Ink Scroll Paintings, floral themes, and a focus on simplicity and minimalist compositions.
