Japanese artist Ken Matsubara (born 1949) makes multimedia works that incorporate video, photographs and found objects to investigate the memories that reside deep within our consciousness. His flickering video images are projected onto surfaces of objects, shallow bowls filled with liquid, broken mirrors, or reflective vitrines. His work is dreamlike and ephemeral.
