Tazuke makes his pieces by carving into a clear acrylic resin surface and painting the resulting cavities with acrylic paint. The works are then exhibited with the reverse side facing out. Thus Tazuke undermines the strict borderline between painting and sculpture by combining the techniques of both: his work is a result of via a pore (to apply) as well as via a lavere (to extract). He creates three-dimensional works (there is volume, material "objectness," physical depth), but these paintings still portray two-dimensional space (they are planes, surfaces, it is "on-the-wall work"). Tazuke, while staying inside the realm of painting, manages to work with depth, physical volume, and multiple surfaces to overcome the back/front dualism of a picture by presenting both sides of painted object.
