equinox 11

Reiko Kanazawa

March 2023 with Robin Waart

For the 11th equinox on March 18th and 19th, Reiko Kanazawa and Yuki Nishino prepare a multi-course menu with fermented food. The carefully crafted dishes incorporate regional German ingredients and products by mimi ferments.
 
Reiko Kanazwa creates a dinner setting as an installation with two large round pieces of glass with iridescent surfaces. Part of the installation is a book: Evol / Love by Robin Waart.
 
Evol/Love is a project in three parts: a billboard series, an installation, and a publication of a collection of 160 subtitled movie stills that all contain the word Love. A collage of voices and definitions arranged in alphabetical order, from ‘Love is where you find it’ (A: A Date with Judy, US 1948, 00:22:37) to ‘But even if it’s a little late, love has a way of coming back to you’ (Y: Yeonae/Love is a Crazy Thing, KR 2005, 01:38:02). Mirrored „LOVE“ reads like its antonym: evil.
It was selected as one of the Best Dutch Book Designs of 2020 (also by the student jury) and as one of The Most Beautiful Books of 2020 in Lithuania as well as shortlisted for the 2022 Best Book Design from All Over the World.
