Yui Furuyama, Ai Yoshida
We are pleased to have Yui Furuyama and Ai Yoshida Joint Exhibition Gather and Draw from Saturday, 16th September, through Friday, 6th October.
The theme of the gallery’s 2023 program, “play,” refers to “a slow oscillating movement, a to-and-fro movement within itself.” Also, <汓> and <斿>, the older Chinese characters for <遊> (means ‘play’), refer to “the rippling of the water surface caused by the wind” and “the way a flag or streamer flaps in the wind.
Furuyama describes ‘playing’ for her as a state that is created in the gaps between movements. She is caught up in the movement when she follows something that is moving or changing. Yoshida says that the energy of the wind and light she feels when she is in nature often motivates her to create works. In addition to her ongoing work with Japanese paper and foil, she began making kites or works that fly in the wind.
In this joint exhibition, two artists will connect through their play with the wind, create a field that draws us in and engage us in a swaying movement. We hope you will enjoy the ‘back and forth’ movement of these two artists, who both pioneer free expression based on Japanese-style painting.
