🌈Saori Hasegawa｜No Where 📅2024.9.15 - 2024.10.30 Perhaps we have all experienced moments like this: sensing something through our consciousness while daydreaming, yet unable to see it with our eyes. Saori Hasegawa refers to this phenomenon as 'maigo no fuukei' (or 'lost scenery') and attempts to capture those moments when our consciousness drifts away and then returns to reality through her paintings. In this exhibition, plants and landscapes are the main motifs of Hasegawa's creations. She observes and paints plants, recreates landscapes from stored photographs, and focuses on each part of the scenery, layering patterns from different periods to gradually form the overall picture: large patches of flowers and vines dominate the visual center against a monochrome background, intertwining and expanding into common urban scenes such as bridges, riverscapes, coastlines, and roads. Hasegawa's use of bright colors not only brings a visual delight akin to a spring breeze but also transports me to distant places - like the Jiefang Bridge in Tianjin and the Star Ferry Pier in Hong Kong that I visited two days ago.

Exhibition Name: Ultra-Relaxation · Why So Serious? Time: 2024/8/3-9/3 Location: Eight Galleries The exhibition is free and no reservation is required. People nowadays are chased by various pressures, and some choose to face themselves and the world with a relaxed attitude, which is also a kind of bravery, whether it is internal friction, lying flat, or being alone. The artist conveys a sense of relaxation through cute and relaxed images, allowing the audience to feel the relaxation of 'Why so serious?'. The relaxed silver little figures in the exhibition are very photogenic, so hurry up and take pictures with them.
