Out-of-focus photographs by Ryo Hamada, who since the 1990s has explored the vagueness of memory and perception, and her unease with making anything clear or reaching conclusions, through pictures that are entirely out of focus. Eight series are gathered: Tobotoboto (strolling), Furimuku (turning around), Kazoeru (counting), Sukitooru (becoming transparent), Naka (inside), Niwa (garden), Sagashimono (something sought) and Atarashii basho (a new place). All are images taken with a camera and made without image processing, using only the function of the lens, and they sit somewhere between a picture and a photograph. Everyday life, in which the edges of things blend into vagueness, appears through this abstract, in-between visual expression, and the pictures lead us away from a society that demands that things be sharp and clear, towards a quietly blurred scene.
