Nathan Ota, “Four Corners” at KP Projects.

Currently showing at KP Projects (Merry Karnowsky Gallery) in Los Angeles, California is artist Nathan Ota’s stunning new solo show “Four Corners.”  

The show features Ota’s impeccably detailed visionary surrealist paintings that combine allegories of life and death with quizzical characters.

seven doors nendo

For Abe Kogyo

Seven door designs to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Abe Kogyo, a manufacturer of wooden front and interior doors, partitions, fixtures and custom-made furniture. All have a basic default design, and each one has been treated with a different idea born from the various techniques and experience held by the company. These doors do not end up being just one-off products. They have opened up new possibilities for various byproducts, displaying a wide range of product development for the future.

Abhominal | Posthumans

Although currently a science fiction, we – the human race – are on the cusp of human genetic engineering.

Humans have altered the genomes of species for thousands of years through artificial selection. Over the past 40 years scientists have made amazing technological progress to improve natures crops and mammals through genetic modifications; recently science has mapped the entire human genome and begun to realise the potential for modifying us.

Abhominal, an archaic word meaning inhuman, is an exploratory weblog of the human form. The digital sculptures are a fusion of geometric, architectural and biological abstract forms – a bleak evolutionary future where biotechnology has been used to make perfect posthuman beings.
