Masakatsu Sashie, a painter from Kanazawa, Japan, created huge spheres of urban detritus ripped from junkyards and apartment towers, floating above the ground like hot-air balloons made of rusted metal, household appliances, and effervescing TV screens.
Masakatsu's latest show opened this weekend at New York City's Jonathan LeVine Gallery; it's titled 'Coacervate,' which the dictionary calls an 'aggregate of colloidal droplets held together by electrostatic attractive forces.'
