Ogino Yuna “Flower & Body”

2021.7.9 [Fri] - 7.25 [Sun]

Born 1982 in Tokyo, Ogino Yuna received her degree from the Graduate School of Fine Arts, Tokyo University of the Arts in 2007, and has since participated in numerous group exhibitions both in Japan and overseas, as well as energetically presented her works in solo exhibitions. She has also expanded her activities by getting involved in live painting events, creating artwork for a featured series in the morning newspaper and more.

Since her debut, Ogino has produced artwork using the motif of “flowers” as a symbol of the self and of women, but she has recently taken up the challenge of creating portraits that feature parts of the body, flower bouquets and other elements, expressed through a harmony of all-over patterns and the creative use of color.

This exhibition features 12 of her brand-new oil paintings and drawings including yet-to-be-shown works. In addition, her first collection of works published last year will be for sale.

Defenseless and relaxed state of people and flowers are such attractive motifs to me, not only for their beauty and ephemerality, but for the tough vitality hidden within and the essence of living things that have lost their sociality.
While asking myself at what moment in modern times the undiscriminated and unprejudiced appearance as it really is can be captured, I look into indoors, sandy beaches, plants and people, and physically draw/paint them with hopes and expectations.
