The exhibition focuses on works created up to the time when the sky begins to change color just a little after the dawn of a night of progress.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When I look back on my memories of sand, which I work with as one of my mediums, I remember seeing sand in a flowerpot at my parents&#8217; house when I was a small child. A flowerpot is a small thing, but the tiny world seen from the city started my interest in nature.<\/p>\n<p>The drawings that I draw on the beach near my studio every day become blurred or disappear the next day due to wind, rain, or the ebb and flow of the tide. Sand, which does not retain the same shape, is perceived as a simple, undefined, and ambiguous entity. Although sand is so light and small that it quickly rises to the surface, its feel when it is placed on the canvas and its rough texture when mixed with paint is a definite resistance that arouses a primordial desire to paint.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, I have changed my mindset from creating works (like objects) to &#8220;painting&#8221; them. This is why I took the two words &#8220;dawn&#8221; and &#8220;draw&#8221; and titled the exhibition &#8220;Dawn + Drawn.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I hope you will take the time to enjoy it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Miyu Yamada<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/biscuitgallery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/available-list_Drawn-Dawn.pdf\"><strong>available works<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Artist Profile<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Miyu Yamada<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>1994\u3000Born in Tokyo<br \/>\nDegree in Law, Aoyama Gakuin University<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Miyu Yamada creates works which project the beings which live between the gaps of the currents of time periods and society. She uses materials like soil as an intermediate existence between the city and nature, capturing the characteristic untethered, floating feeling and evasiveness of the modern person.<\/p>\n<p>She develops a series of works based on drawings with raised lines and works using pastels. The creatures that appear in her works are depicted as the viewers themselves as well as Yamada herself as she looks at the rapidly changing times and intersecting societies.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: x-large;\">Information<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>\nMiyu Yamada<br \/>\n&#8220;Dawn + Drawn&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Location: biscuit gallery 1-3F<br \/>\nDates: Thursday, November 23 \u2013\u00a0Sunday, December 10, 2023<br \/>\nTime: 13:00\u00a0\u2013\u00a019:00 *Closed Monday \u2013 Wednesday<br \/>\nFree Admission<br \/>\nSponsored by biscuit gallery<\/p>\n<p>Opening Reception: 15:00 \u2013 19:00, Thursday, November 23<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>biscuit gallery (Shibuya, Tokyo), a commercial contemporary art gallery on Shoto Bunkamura Street in Shibuya, is pleased to announce Miyu Yamada&#8217;s solo exhibition, &#8220;Dawn + Drawn.&#8221; The exhibition will be on view from Thursday, November 23 to Sunday, December 10, 2023.
