The Constant Glitch
2021M Leuven
In the series 'Crochet', Kato Six explores through detailed, time-consuming pencil drawings various patterns of knitting and crochet, such as those found in manuals for handicrafts. The compositions become abstract patterns that relate to monochrome painting, in which colours subtly hook into each other. They make us think about crafts, differences between art and craft, the private and the 'elevated' work of art. In 'Background Hum – Outer Hebrides', a commercial wallpaper with an idyllic natural landscape is folded around a diamond shape. The vast landscape implodes on a sculptural object lying on the ground in space.
