Nao Osada
Gallery Soumeido is pleased to present Osada Nao's solo exhibition '紙を持つ手は紙,' literally means 'Hand holding paper is a paper.'
The photograph of this main visual, the combination of Osada's hand holding the artwork and the hands holding a paper in the print scroll in a picture, have a connection to this suggestive exhibition title. This multi-layered structure of printed matters is similar to Osada's previous artworks.
Osada has observed and carefully collected the existence of often overlooked objects and reconstructed them through printing, presenting them to us in a new form.
When we find artwork, such as a box of amazon, placed sometimes hidden in space, we realize that it is not a familiar object we knew well but something utterly different regarding material and support.
The works sometimes question the existence of things and the meaning of their existence and seem to leave something in the viewer's memory as a strange feeling.
In this exhibition, Osada will present new works in the Soumei-do, an exhibition space surrounded by numerous Ukiyo-e prints, focusing on Ukiyo-e prints as printed matter.
