Part of the Genesis drop by renowned artist, Michel Comte, the "Japan Series" consists of 14 unique works, which are a continuation to his cinematic film "The Girl from Nagasaki”, a melodramatic tale of love and despair, as a re-adaptation of Giacomo Puccini’s opera Madame Butterfly.
In Comte’s vision of Japanese culture and aesthetics, beauty is inextricably tethered to mystery, and the uniquely seductive elegance that arises from this combination is both perfectly flawless and dangerously complex. Indeed, in many of the images of Comte’s "Japan Series", a productive friction arises between the meticulous and symbol-laden styling of both subject and surrounding, and the seemingly unknowable if not feral core of the protagonists. Because of this duality, Comte’s images are not only a feast for the eye, but an invitation to our imagination.
