nina 『AfterBirth』
2024.3.14 thu - 2024.4.21 sun
We are pleased to announce the opening of artist nina's solo exhibition "AfterBirth" as the inaugural exhibition of the New Gallery in Jimbocho.
During her time at Tokyo University of the Arts, nina captured significant attention with her lyrical visuals for the music video and jacket of YOASOBI's debut song "Into The Night," expressing the song's worldview. The series of girl portraits she has consistently drawn in various collaborations and personal works from the beginning are characterized by a distinctive use of pale colors, symbolizing nina's exploration of abstract existences between reality and virtuality.
The exhibition "AfterBirth" presents a completely new collection of works that reveal the raw physicality being lost in today's society, dominated by digital communication through displays. It focuses on the inner self = instinct and the true form of the human figures she has continuously depicted. The exhibition, featuring a variety of media including oil paintings, drawings, three-dimensional works, and display pieces, aims to delve into the emotive core of the worldview. Through the colors and light painted by nina, what essence dwelling deep within humans will "birth" in what form? Please don't miss the new developments of artist nina in her first solo exhibition.
In addition to the first sale of nina's works, also look forward to limited apparel items such as silk scarves made exclusively for this solo exhibition and merchandise featuring new illustrations.
