States of Flux – Myth, Memory, and Materiality

 

This exhibition presents three distinct artists—Gutierrez, Maeshiro, and Yamagata—whose practices deeply engage with themes of transformation, layered narratives, and identities shaped by myth, memory, and the natural world. Each artist employs distinct material and conceptual methodologies to articulate personal and collective states of transition, creating dialogues that resonate across multiple cultural and temporal landscapes.

 

Collectively, the works in this exhibition reflect powerful narratives about personal and collective identities shaped by evolving historical, cultural, and natural contexts. Through their unique material practices and conceptual depth, Gutierrez, Maeshiro, and Yamagata articulate the dynamic, ever-shifting experiences of myth, memory, and materiality, exploring how identity is constantly in flux within an interconnected world.
