“In the spring of 2020, the pandemic arrived. Physically isolated, we were shifted to virtual communication with the world. As we began to channel our way through the digital screen in isolation every day, the gridded layout felt most authentic. In my painting, I looked for reliable underpinning structures and craved feelings of reciprocity in the physical and laborious paint application. On the rigid linear mesh, I am mapping my marks which are reminders of my hand movement and their touch on the surface.” - Masako Kamiya
