Maiko Kasai
Maiko Kasai (b. 1983) incorporates constructed narratives into landscapes of the every day, hinting at the necessary training and practice required to exist in these imaginary worlds, as well as the aspects of those narratives that are ordinarily suppressed by society. Her paintings, distinguished by bold compositions that make deft use of blank space and powerful, dynamic brushstrokes, feature a cast of unique motifs evoking all sorts of stories and narratives, such as young girls brandishing a variety of weapons, or stuffed rabbit figures, fraught with inner conflicts or held as the embodiment of confrontation with the problems of contemporary society. This is Kasai’s first solo exhibition at the gallery in two and a half years, showcasing a range of works filled with a remarkable intensity and sense of exhilaration.
