A conversation exploring the journey of Tetsuya Maruyama’s creation. How he cultivates creativity in emulsion and light, and brings it to life in his own way – through his thinking, his working, his ideas. We will hear how he begins a project, his approach, and what inspires him. While he works mostly in analogue film, his practice spans performance, installation, text and found sound compilations.
The conversation will also touch on how Maruyama’s work has evolved in the Global South, and how he works with film: what it is, and what it is not. Moderated by Lichun Tseng, this conversation reveals how his worlds of emulsion, film, light and sound meet, shaping a vision entirely his own.
