About

Masao Mochizuki documented a year of Japanese television from 1975-1976, capturing hundreds of fragmented broadcast images within single frames. These montages reflect the chaotic blend of culture, news, and entertainment consumed by viewers without distinction. By juxtaposing significant events with trivial shows, Mochizuki’s work critiques the medium's detached portrayal of global and local happenings, highlighting Japan's complex relationship with technology.
