Teppei Kaneuji’s current exhibition at ShugoArts begins in an alcove with the multi-media installation Midnight in a Box (2001–10). The work features footage recorded from the after-hours broadcast of the Osaka branch of the national television network (NHK) projected into an industrial-sized, blue plastic basin that has been turned on its side. The footage is a live feed from a fixed camera overlooking one of the city’s elevated highways, which cuts through a shadowy forest of buildings. Over the course of the video’s two hours, the only action comes from the lights of cars and the ticking of the digital time icon on the screen. A figurative mental block that seemingly manifests the kind of idea that comes from not having any ideas, Midnight in a Box is perhaps emblematic of the exhibition as a whole, which, with its title ‘Recent Works: “Post-Something”’, suggests an occlusion or a blank spot waiting to be filled
