Tsuyoshi Ozawa’s Vegetable Weapons
Japanese photographer Tsuyoshi Ozawa’s Vegetable Weapons series began in 2001. Since then, he has traveled around the world taking photographs of young women holding “weapons” fashioned from the ingredients needed to make an indigenous hot-pot dish. His art concludes in him making an actual hot-pot and sharing a meal. His series, which poke fun at the stupidity of war and violence, will be on display as part of a group show at Misa Shin Gallery. Noteworthy will be a recent addition to the series – a work photographed in Fukushima right after the earthquake and the nuclear power plant accident in March 2011.
