An exhibition at the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art pairing photographs with a new sculptural installation and performance. It centers on Jason Wee's commissioned work, created in response to Eikoh Hosoe's series Barakei (Ordeal by Roses), which staged images of novelist Yukio Mishima in Tokyo in 1961–62. Wee's installation focuses on the props from those photographs—a garden hose, a mallet, a candle, a painterly backdrop—mounted within a spiral of rope encoded with a lecture script audible on headphones. The show also traces Hosoe's photographs across three editions of the landmark 1963 photobook, curated by Yasufumi Nakamori.
