About Book
記憶や認識の曖昧さを眼差す「ぼんやりした写真」
tobotonoto (stroll around...)
Ryo Hamada
Ryo Hamada is an artist who, beginning in the 1990s up to the present day, explores the possibilities of what can be artistically expressed with photographs that are entirely out of focus. Because of the abstractness of this visual expression, not everyone may be able to determine, viewing her works, that "This is a photograph." More accurately, Hamada's works can be described as somewhere between a picture and a photograph. Although the works appear as halfway entities, they are all images photographed with a camera and, moreover, the artist does not rely on what is termed image processing but creates "blurred photographs" using only the functions of the camera lens. The images are undeniably photographs. But here the expectations of photographs that people have held thus far effortlessly fall away. What has fallen away? In a manner of speaking, what has fallen away is "truth." No, perhaps we should say "truth" that is gently beginning to vanish.
"This is strange, I'm not sure I understand it, but I guess I don't have to--if you can feel that way, then when there are other more complicated and abstruse things that you and the other person can't understand at all, even if you don't, as long as you feel like you kind of understand, that's pretty much enough I think."
Hamada herself does not use filters on her lenses or use image processing to transform images. She has followed her own rule, from the time she worked with film cameras, of photographing with lenses that blur the focus. Even after the transition to digital she felt that "There was no point for me personally in changing my approach then," and says she produces her photographic images without making any changes to them.
The abstractness of Hamada's blurred photographs causes us to feel as if these pieces of someone else's daily life overlap with our own memories and experiences. I think the effect of blurring is also the possibility of access to others. When, where, and what are unclear, and yet you seem to have seen or sensed something, or perhaps you are mistaken and it is just your imagination.
Excerpts from the text "Blurred Photographs: The Artistic Expression of Ryo Hamada"
