Masamitsu Shigeta, Sprouts in Union Square, 2021
Acrylic on shaped canvas
34 × 25 inches

Shigeta’s anti-pastoral landscapes depict nature and architecture within New York City. He finds the geometry and light in places people walk past everyday while looking at their iPhones. He consciously records these moments and combines several images to create a new reflection. He torques the conventions that make painting recognizable by shifting the medium towards sculpture, either by shaping his canvas or utilizing framing devices.
