"I represented light and life coming out of the darkness. I aimed for the fusion of multiple exposure and animation."
New installation mixed in noise and abstract
Makino wraps footage of trees with a gauzy, summer drenched haze. Visually and aurally it’s a very impressionistic experience.

The four elements referred to as "water", "flame", "wind" and "earth" in this film all exist individually while responding to each other, by fighting and loving each other, foster the concept of a world in each individual's "subjectivity"
first foray into found-footage filmmaking where human shadows emerge from the dust and scratches accumulated on the filmstrip
Emaki is a Japanese traditional narrative form in picture and text created from 11th to 16th century. The film is collaboration work between filmmaker Makino Takashi and painter and filmmaker Ishida Takashi. Ishida has been interested in live-picture, the process of paint, and Makino’s interest is to make a new image with extremely high speed random images. With Makino’s skills in telecine, Ishida’s painted lines were rolled and scrolled, and became “the living line”. The film is maybe a chance, or maybe it is a fight. Perhaps, this film will show you both elements. (www.lightcone.org)
Filmed entirely on location in Australia, Double Phase follows a discrete visual chronology captured by Takashi Makino. It considers how the complexity of ’natural world’ continues to be reductively framed within contemporary society. Pushing back against the simplistic and monocular sensing of the world, Makino responds with an intensely affective projection of lived experience. Moving far beyond the capacity of lived day to day experience, the film collides image after image into a cascade of almost-cosmic complexity. A reminder that we must always be reaching out and extending ourselves into the world that emerges before us. (Asia TOPA 2020)
