PAGIC Gallery is pleased to present a solo exhibition of Miki Tomii, featuring the new works that remind us of the coming of spring.

Tomii uses clay and glass to create her works by playing with “temperature,” “time,” and “gravity.
They let us universally connect to the strength of nature and life and the profound serenity of the world.
She aims to express the intimacy of these different materials by diverting hand kneading, the traditional technique.
The two materials erode each other, and the boundary becomes blurred.
After firing, the pieces are buried in pure white talcum powder in the kiln, and the temperature is lowered over time.
It is a delicate and loving process, like digging out buds from a snowfield.

We will also introduce the new lineup of Tomii’s blown glass.

09.23 Sat.—10.09 Mon., 2023

PAGIC Gallery is pleased to announce the solo exhibition of Riichiro Shinozaki’s “Vessels of Twinkling Stars.”

Some stories are not to be told but read from.
One person’s back contains enormous memories, sometimes more eloquent than expressions.
Shinozaki aims to unravel them one by one, put them right, and search the stories from their bits of memories in this exhibition.
He likened the backs of the figures to “vessels.” He will depict how the circulating records of daily life have infinite possibilities and are connected to a larger circle.
When the repetition wavers. That is the beginning of creation.
