[XMAS 2024] Nozomi Uchida solo exhibition "Living Things"

Nozomi Uchida's solo exhibition "Living Things" will be held in the in-store art space FOAM CONTEMPORARY from Saturday, November 2nd to Wednesday, November 20th, 2024.

Uchida is an artist who uses materials such as iron and brass, and the craft technique of hammering to create works with animal motifs. He is currently actively exhibiting his work in Asia, including participating in art fairs in Japan and Hong Kong. Uchida's works capture the images of creatures that have different physical functions than humans and live in different environments, yet coexist in the same place. By fusing technological motifs such as megaphones and boilers, which humans have created to supplement their abilities, with the images of creatures that are born with those abilities, Uchida emphasizes the special abilities that creatures possess.
This exhibition, entitled "Living Things," expands the scope of his work to include not only animals but also plants, expressing "those who live together in the world." The warmth and a certain cuteness felt in his works are the very expression of Uchida's gaze on those who coexist with us.
