Februar 2023 - Februar 2023Hiroshi Takizawa is an artist born in 1983.Since graduating from university with a degree in psychology, he has continued to produce works in various forms of photographic expression. By capturing "material" in his photographs (and videos) he reconstructs the realized image and fixes it on another base to invite the viewer to a world that shifts between the boundary of image and material. Takizawa reexamines the boundaries between two-dimensional images and three-dimensional materials. Using photography—a device that dissects a space-time into a slice of two-dimensional image, Takizawa makes irreversible transferals possible between dimensions through various media, and continues to extend his unique field of expression.
Since his exhibition "New Photographic Objects: The Materiality of Photography and Imaging" at the Museum of Modern Art, Saitama (2020), his work has received increasing attention in recent years. In September of 2021 Takizawa was bestowed with the Overseas Trainee Grant by the Japanese Agency of Cultural Affairs, with which he has been conducting research at the Sigmund Freud Museum in Vienna.

During his residency in Vienna, Hiroshi Takizawa will research the history of photography in Western Europe (centering on Dada and Surrealism) in the modernism of photography and the relationship between photography and psychoanalysis by Freud, which developed at the same time, and reexamine its influence on art and photography in the modern age, and apply it to his work.
In particular, he will search for the connections between Freud's thoughts on the unconscious and dream judgments and how they influenced the art and thought of the time through research and fieldwork in the archives and materials of the Sigmund Freud Museum.
After the residency, he will use the results of his research to develop the significance of the photographic works he has produced so far and devise an exhibition structure for Sternepassage.
