Artists

Mai Yamashita, Naoto Kobayashi
NOW IDeA by UTRECHT is pleased to present an exhibition of new works by Mai Yamashita and Naoto Kobayashi, an artist duo who have been actively showing their works in Europe.

In their works the artists often attempt tirelessly to play with time: running on a green-lawned park in circles until their footsteps create an infinity symbol in the dirt; hand-knitting a super-sized sweater for a 4 meter tall giraffe; or making an origami crane with an acorn inside, only to observe the acorn sprout.

Their works are often grounded in everyday actions, yet their minuscule, sometimes absurd acts transcend mundane realities and reveal rich possibilities in the everyday.
