Work from his oeuvre
“In the time of post internet art, an understanding in pure digital media consumption/ production/ redistribution and the philosophy of object-oriented ontology is what frames Aoto Oouchi‘s work field. ‘What you see is what you get’ is the title of his latest work and portrays a representation and recontextualisation of “objects” or “pictures” in a “picture”. We are used to see “real” sculptures as pictures in the net, we rarely go there, walk around and look at a sculpture. Instead we flick through masses of pictures every day online and we are used to it. Aoto’s work is about the question of our validation of mass and reality.” – O Fluxo
