Moirémotion

Following the worldwide success of his Poemotion trilogy, Takahiro Kurashima presents a stunning new title. In Moirémotion, the motifs are combined to form a visual narrative that is revealed when the static basic image is set in motion by means of the striped foil. Then an astonishing panorama of unseen moirés and patterns unfolds. The artist uses the digital tools for his creations in a virtuoso manner. At the same time he continues to catch up with the great models of kinetic art. Moirémotion is a school of vision and offers contemplative recreation for our eyes.

Takahiro Kurashima studied at the Musashino Art University and has lived in Tokyo since 1993. As an artist and designer, he collaborates with artists from different genres such as fashion, design, music and cartoons. Kurashima’s Poemotion 1–3 series has sold almost 100.000 copies worldwide.
