The +2 Gallery hosts exhibitions by up-and-coming young artists, linked to the exhibitions held at +1art. As a place to present experimental attempts, the gallery plans to utilize a small space that is not a white cube.
In March, we will hold the exhibition Yukika Kitamura.
n Kitamura's paper cutouts, the invisible contours of the painting are represented by many interconnected circles.Each circle, cut out in minute detail on a sheet of paper, overlaps and interlocks with each other, as if to reveal the existence of something beyond.
Please enjoy the world of Yukika Kitamura's +2, where she travels between two-dimensional and three-dimensional spaces.
KITAMURA Yukika
A painting always begins with a single line. By tracing the invisible outline on the screen, a shape is created, and a fiction is constructed with reality in a two-dimensional space. Is it possible, then, to create a three-dimensional space out of these lines? Not as a sculpture, but as a drawn line. As an attempt to answer this question, I use the technique of kirie in my work. In Japanese, the term combines the character "切" (kiri), meaning "cut," and "絵" (e), meaning "picture," to form "切り絵" (kirie). As the name suggests, kirie is a technique for cutting out drawn lines. In this exhibition, I would like to create a place where two and three dimensions, fiction and reality intersect by using kirie to capture the entire space.
