Shiho Kano works

Following creative work with a variety of media along the history of imagery, such as silver halide photography, and later film and video, which I have been engaging in since my time at the Imaging Arts & Sciences department at Musashino Art University, in recent years I am producing mainly single-channel videos and multi-channel video installations.
Rooms, glass bottles, flowers, light, smoke… The objects that become the subjects of my work are all familiar parts of modern life. Through minute filming and editing procedures, I project scenes that we have seen countless times but were never really aware of, by following a certain timeline, or layering multiple different timelines on top of each other. Furthermore, my video installations are works in which I refer to both the inside and the outside of the frames, by visualizing and spatializing the relationship between screen/monitor and viewer that is hardly perceived in single-channel videos.
