Concept

Invitation:

The world reflected on the lake’s surface is nothing more than an illusion that each of us projects as we wish.

This world has no substance; we see only the world we desire to see.

In these works, I have depicted my own illusions.

This exhibition is an invitation to “see the world you wish to see and live your life freely.”

I hope that these works, like the surface of a lake, provide an opportunity for all visitors to sense their own inner movements, emotions, and sensations, and to be guided to the landscapes they envision in their hearts.

Yuri Okada Solo Exhibition “Illusion on the Lake” Planning and Management Team

Producer: Lisa Fujino (Founder, The Artscene)
Having been exposed to the world of art since she was a child, Risa Fujino is a contemporary art enthusiast who has always wanted to “bring a rich experience through art. This will be the first time for her to produce a solo exhibition, even though she has been involved in information dissemination and planning.

Spatial design (including sound) and pictorial description: Masahiro Kitamura (maaa jewelry designer)
His specialty is to fascinate the view of the world in a space. He is in charge of space design and painting commentary. In the commentary of paintings, I read the pure message of the painting more than the artist. Sound creation, which she has wanted to try for a long time, will be presented for the first time at this solo exhibition.

Special Thanks
