Takuro Tamayama
玉山拓郎
COLLECTION ARTIST

Profile

Born 1990 in Gifu, based in Tokyo. Studied at Aichi University of the Arts before completing his graduate studies at Tokyo University of the Arts in 2015. Referencing familiar imagery, Tamayama creates installations combining vivid lighting and sound around motifs of furniture, everyday objects and interior space — defamiliarising space through minimal means and unsettling the viewer's bodily sense and perception.

Selected exhibitions include "FY2021 3rd Term Collection Exhibition" (Aichi Prefectural Museum of Art, 2022), "Anything will slip off / If cut diagonally" (ANOMALY, 2021), and "Something Black" (ANOMALY, 2023). Held the solo exhibition "Takuro Tamayama: FLOOR" at Toyota Municipal Museum of Art (2025).

Relationship with GAS AS INTERFACE

One of the artists GAS AS INTERFACE CO., LTD. (operator of GASBON METABOLISM) has continuously supported for over a decade — through client work, the solo exhibition "Dirty Place" at CALM & PUNK GALLERY (2018), the publication of "GASBOOK 35 TAKURO TAMAYAMA" (2019), and a residency and opening exhibition at GASBON METABOLISM (2022).

Selected Works (off-site)

Conceived in dialogue with architecture designed by Kisho Kurokawa, both "Museum Static Lights" and "Static Lights: Tilt and Rotation" carry site-specific elements while remaining independent enough to tour and unfold anew in different locations.
