Marcel Cousins, "CHOP-shop"
26 November 2010 - 10 December 2010
Marcel Cousins is a Tokyo-based artist working in painting, printmaking and installation. His artwork is both subversive and ironic. He operates within a technological matrix to visually explore what impact the saturation of technology (production, communication, etc.) has on us as individuals and as a society. In this sense, his work is addressing not only the evolving place of the machine in the period of late capitalism, but also co-opting the machine itself, using it to explore the kinds of narratives they enable us to produce about ourselves.
In 2002, Cousins graduated from Tokyo National University of Music and Fine Art with a Masters in printmaking. In 2003 he co-founded the Kings Artist Run Initiative. His work has been shown in Japan, Korea, Singapore, China, France, and Australia. He is currently working on a Doctorate of Philosophy (in Fine Art) at Tama Art University in Tokyo under the Japanese Ministry of Education’s Scholarship.
