Taka Kono
Taka Kono (b. 1994) lives and works in Tokyo. Working across installation and objects, his practice investigates how intimacy and distance are configured spatially over time. He builds interiors that imitate domestic comfort while withholding it: the impersonality of standardized rooms, and the distance a person keeps even in closeness. He holds a BFA from Parsons School of Design, New York.
