Morphosis

Martin Berteloodt

Martin Berteloodt from France is holding a solo exhibition“Morphosis" from November 24th, Friday to 26th, Sunday at CONTRAST. Over the past year and a half, he has delved deeper into the realms of palpable and visual expressions. Building upon A Contaminated Love Story, 2023, Morphosis further traverses the microscopic intricacies of sensuality and convoluted feelings. Evolving from dark surrealism, this exhibition portrays a more tangible dialogue between the grotesque and the beautiful, the chaotic and the serene. Through Morphosis, he extends an invitation to explore an ensemble of mediums—statues, prints, photography, AR installations, performances, 3D printed masks, wearables, and a short film. The journey begins on November 24th with an opening day entry fee of 1000 yen, accompanied by drinks, performances, and animation. ー Layout and edit:Caro Sanekata Render and video:Martin Berteloodt Music:Scott Wade Short film:Theo Rocq Live performance : Kily Shakley Mocap performance:Lara J.

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.
