Dialogue with

  • Shuma Jan
  • Daisuke Abe

Shuma Jan, director of the photo and video production company bird and insect, and cinematographer Daisuke Abe will hold their first two-person exhibition "Dialogue with" from October 28, Friday to October 30, Sunday at CONTRAST. As a director and a photographer, they often discuss their work together and realize that there are different perspectives and ways of thinking about the same product. No matter how long they have spent time together, differences in identity and background naturally have separate influences on what they see and think, and they have different outcomes. On the other hand, there is a time when they can envision the same vision without exchanging many words, and the theme of this exhibition,"Dialogue with" came from this realization. Shuma Jan will exhibit his video works, and Daisuke Abe will show photographs, and individual ideas about the work will be presented. ー Exhibition Concept ー It is to exchange deep thoughts that are invisible to the eye. People who spent different times confirm the topics floating in the air, and try to get closer to the core of a matter. It is about getting to know each other. It is to see yourself. It enables you to find new answers.

About CONTRAST
In 2022, CONTRAST opened as a creative space in Yoyogi-Hachiman, Tokyo. The interior, based on a 45-year-old structure, consists of three floors under the concept of "reconstruction," and is managed by IN FOCUS, a digital branding studio that operates under the theme of "We propose new perspectives through a collective pursuit of digital excellence.". The space not only serves as its own creative space but also aims to be widely open to the public, providing a space for continuous and experimental reconstruction by its users, breaking free from limitations. Focusing on various forms of expression and encountering the creators who produce them, we will come to understand the importance of "CONTRAST = comparison" in our endeavors.
