Ni
We are pleased to announce a solo exhibition by AAWAA, director of COSMIC WONDER and artist, at Taka Ishii Gallery Kyobashi.
In conjunction with this exhibition, a collection of works on the theme of tan will be published by AKAAKA Art Publishing.
We look forward to seeing you there.
My exploration of tan is now approaching its third year. The character “Ni” appears in many place names in this region.
From Miyama to the Tango Peninsula, I have repeatedly traveled it with my Shiba Inu companion, listening intently for the constant hum of Ni amid the ever-changing rhythms of daily life, trying to grasp something hazy and formless that seems to rise from the land itself.
Impressions stirring somewhere deep in my memory linger like afterimages behind my eyes, then futter back to stillness like flakes in a snow globe.
When the song of the bell crickets heralds the end of summer, my memories of Ni crystallize in two different spaces.
