Referring to cineastic archetypes the title of the exhibition specifies a concrete moment as well as a precise task and therein delivers a clue to the understanding of Japanese artist Hiroki Tsukuda’s works. Hence Tsukuda can be see as a archaeologist of images. Layer by layer the artist frees his own imaginary pictorial world. These worlds only exist in Tsukuda’s fantasy at first, but are assembled by digital technology and brought to paper in ink and charcoal.
