[Staff comment]
Nohara's works are characterized by a gentle, heart-warming quality. The Omelet Mant and the "Cappuccino" series in particular show people wrapped up in warm food, and I felt they capture the warmth and reassurance that food brings. (Kawahara)
[Exhibition information]
art remix
"Remix" refers to re-editing a work, or to the re-edited work itself — but here we would like you to take it to mean looking anew at existing works from a fresh perspective. In a contemporary art scene that changes at a dizzying pace, where values too are constantly pressed to update, looking at works from a new angle and viewing them through the lens of the present can lead to fresh discoveries… We invite you to enjoy how this exhibition resonates with the Shibuya audience that keeps driving the "now."
