3600 Colors by Keisuke Katsuki

This page presents 3600 Colors, a painting series by Keisuke Katsuki.

In this body of work, Katsuki begins with the question of how images are displayed, translating the structure of digital screens into painting. Each canvas is divided into a 60 by 60 grid—comprising 3,600 pixels—and constructed through the accumulation of red, green, and blue (RGB) pigments, from which all images emerge.

The images we encounter daily on smartphones and digital displays are composed of light.

3600 Colors reconfigures this structure into painting.

In this series, the “display format” itself is established as a primary condition, preceding the content of the image. Whether drawn from art historical painting or the countless images circulating online, all are treated within the same formal framework. In this sense, Katsuki’s practice can be seen as a contemporary response to the “conditions of seeing,” much like how Turner and Monet engaged with the visual environments of their respective eras.

​

To date, approximately 40 works from this series have been presented through exhibitions including Art Fair Asia Fukuoka 2022, Art Fair Tokyo 2023, and the solo exhibition ON-SCREEN (Minnano Gallery, 2026).
