Kunihiko Nohara
We are pleased to announce that Kunihiko Nohara's solo exhibition, "Bubbles and Flowers", will be held at gallery UG Tennoz from Friday, January 24, 2025, to Saturday, February 15, 2025.
Kunihiko NOHARA, who has primarily focused on three-dimensional wood carvings, will unveil a new series of two-dimensional works in this exhibition.
Kunihiko NOHARA was born in 1982 in Eniwa, Hokkaido. He completed his graduate studies in Sculpture at Hiroshima City University in 2007 and has been an exclusive artist with gallery UG since 2010. Nohara, who has consistently worked with the theme of "pleasant moments," will present new works in this exhibition, focusing on his series "A moment." In this series, seemingly unrelated motifs of "pleasant moments," "bonsai," and "bubbles" are brought together by Nohara, offering viewers a fresh perspective on these concepts.
A common element in Nohara’s works is the depiction of a figure wearing underwater goggles. These goggles symbolize anonymity, providing viewers with an opportunity to project their own experiences and emotions onto the work. This approach encourages viewers to recall fleeting happy memories from their daily lives and to explore their inner selves. Moreover, in today’s society, the concept of “anonymity” is significant, enhancing social diversity and inclusiveness, and generating new perspectives.
Nohara's works skillfully connect the themes of "pleasant moments" and "anonymity," helping us to rediscover the small joys hidden in our everyday lives.
