Artists

Masako Ando

Masako Ando paints children, animals and plants on porcelain-smooth canvas surfaces. Her works are characterized by delicate lines, multi-layered colors and a depth that seems to draw the viewer in. "Hara Documents 9: Masako Ando – The Garden of Belly Button" is the first solo exhibition at a museum of this superbly talented young artist who probes the interval between reality and unreality in search of moments
that give rise to a picture. Gathered together are 19 works, most of which are appearing in public for the first time. We invite you to experience Masako Ando's rich narrative world of living creatures that breathe and exude a charm that can only be appreciated by the naked eye.
