Mizuma Art Gallery is pleased to present “kawa=flow” the second solo exhibition at the gallery by YAMAMOTO.

Yamamoto has been showing mainly in the USA and Europe and in this year he joined in Photography Festival Krakow, Poland and some exhibitions in Portland, Atlanta, Milan, Zurich, and Antwerp. After this show, another solo exhibitions in Paris, Cologne, Freiburg, Tucson are coming up.

His photographic works are mostly in monochrome and its aged texture reminds us of “memories dropping out of someone’s drawers”. Small as snapshot but speechlessly beautiful pictures have been exhibited as a group of about ten to several hundreds spread across the wall, or sometimes placed in a small box. Tranquility around the each photograph expanded to the whole space. Strangely existence of single piece and whole installation seem to be equal. It recalls relationship between self and the world in oriental and Japanese thoughts. Western audience might pick up those essences and maybe that is why his work is also widely appreciated in western world.
