Kota Ezawa samples imagery from a broad range of sources, including news media, popular cinema, and the history of art, which he then distills into flattened landscapes of pure form. Ezawa walks through the Watch This! exhibition and discusses his work LYAM 3D, a refiguring of Alain Resnais’s
French New Wave film, L’Année dernière à Marienbad (Last Year at Marienbad), stripped clean of any romance or narrative arc and rendered as only the essential shapes.
