About the artwork
Maya Makino aims to capture and preserve the experience of witnessing scenes from the past triggered by an involuntary awareness of sensations. Think of the quietness of the night or the sound of rain. The Japanese artist uses a single dye to achieve a range of indigo blue hues, working on wooden panels primed with a traditional gesso made of gofun—also known as shell lime. In the Night series, consisting of four vertically oriented paintings, measuring just eighteen by fourteen centimeters—or seven by five inches—, Makino creates a sequence of blue shimmers, glints of memories of the night. The indigo does not sit on top of the surface; it penetrates the support, parallel to how the mind is penetrated and altered in an act of remembrance. The Japanese artist approaches painting as a phenomenon emerging from deep within the support, as the color impels the painting to transcend its material aspects.
