AMMON TOKYO is pleased to announce a solo exhibition by CAI YUNYI Clarice, painter from Shanghai, starting July 1st, 2022.
This exhibition, exploring the relationship between water and fire, will be held in collaboration with the artist's solo exhibition at Gallery-1 (APARTMENT HOTEL SHINJUKU / B1F) from June 10 to July 3, and will be divided into daytime and nighttime perspectives. Our gallery will be focusing on the "daytime thoughts" throughout the exhibition.
We hope you enjoy Cai's unique poetic view of the world, in which they try to express themselves while being conscious of the innocent story that precedes the development of words. We look forward to your visit.
ARTIST STATEMENT ある⿊髪ロングの⼥の⼈が私の後ろに呟いていた。 夢のなかに聞こえたフレーズが魔法のようにインスピレーションをくれた。 ⽔と炎とは何か。なぜ⽔が炎を⽀えるのか。 ⽔と炎が、壊滅的でありながら調和的に共存するシチュエーションがあるのだろうか。 もしあるとすれば、どのような光景であろうか。 今回は夜の思考と昼の思考、即ち⼆回の個展を通してこの謎のフレーズについて考える。 絵画は私の謎を作り、そして謎を解ける道具。引き継ぎ鑑賞者に謎を提供する装置としての存在でもある。 展⽰をまるで⼀つの夢のように体験してもらうことを期待している。
A certain woman with long dark hair was muttering behind me. The phrase I heard in my dream magically inspired me. What is water and fire? Why does water choke out the flames? Is there a situation in which water and fire coexist in a devastating yet harmonious manner? If so, what kind of scene would it be? In this exhibition, I will consider this enigmatic phrase through my thoughts of night and day, that is, through two solo exhibitions. Paintings are my tools for creating and solving riddles. It is also a device that takes over and offers mystery to the viewer. I hope that viewers will experience the exhibition as if it were a dream.
