“When I was a kid, photography took me into the adult world and now that I am an adult, it’s the best way for me to stay a kid.” K-Narf can be described as a maker of photographs rather than simply a photographer. With simple tools and materials, he re-invents traditional photography and intentionally keeps a playful and amateur spirit in his creative process. Since his first exhibition in Tokyo in 2001, K-NARF’s photography has made use of the principles of “bricolage,” a contemporary art movement closely affiliated with the “Ready Made,” “Arte Povera,” and “D.I.Y.” movements.
This exhibition is a Kyotographie and KG+ Kyotographie satellite event.
