Anton KustersAnton Kusters was born in Belgium (1974), and obtained a master's degree in Political Science at K.U.Leuven (Belgium). He studied photography at STUK Leuven (Belgium) and Academy of Fine Arts, Hasselt (Belgium). He lives & works in Belgium andTokyo. He explores the difficulties of representing trauma, loss of the experience of place, and the act of commemoration. Using an increasingly abstracted and deconstructed representation, he pushes for an ongoing influence of the medium on the work itself. His focus lies on investigating ways of seeing, the mechanisms of memory and remembrance, and the significance of viewer placement and subject-position. In 2019, he was nominated for the Prix Pictet, and he was a finalist for the 2020 Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize. Read More Read Less
