    KEN NAKAHASHI will participate in ART WEEK TOKYO, from November 7-10.


    【Gallery Program】

    Yuki Harada Afterglow

    Yuki Harada employs technology and performance in his works to explore the overlooked elements of visual culture. In this exhibition, Harada will debut his first-ever series of two-dimensional works, Dreamscape (2024). The series draws inspiration from the genre of digital landscape art known as “dreamscape,” which emerged around the year 2020. Harada interprets these dreamscapes, which are characterized by a surreal sense of stillness, security, and sterility, as “landscapes that reflect contemporary global circumstances and the state of the planet.” Among the works in the Dreamscape series are Home Port (2024), inspired by the history of the town of Lahaina on the island of Maui, and Afterglow (2024), which depicts the mountains of Iwakuni, Harada’s hometown in western Japan.
