Maja Laerkholm, a Danish artist based in Tokyo, presents an exhibition titled "Underneath" featuring two main categories: landscape paintings and abstract compositions. In landscape paintings, Laerkholm skillfully combines Japanese and Danish cultural elements, emphasizing a shared essence beneath their differences. The abstract artworks incorporate 3D structures made from recycled paper that once protected the belongings of the artist's family during their move from Copenhagen to Tokyo in December 2022. This unique approach not only offers visually appealing experiences but also weaves the history of paper into the narrative of art. The exhibition, exploring emotions hidden beneath expressive styles and cultural disparities, invites viewers to delve into the deeper perspectives that connect seemingly distinct elements.
