In addition, drawings traced from the photographs will also be exhibited.

." "I see the person who is reading the book. I can't see through what that person is reading , I can't see through what that person is reading. . but I still stare at the cover of the book. The book receives two gazes( four eyes) at the same time and acts like a wall with no front or back. I thought, I have read that book, which I had never read, because I could reread it in my mind. I took the picture as I recalled it . . to be precise, I did not recall it, but I stood up and actually saw it. . but the picture was one I had already taken in the past. So I was not that person.

Many of you may find it a bit difficult to understand, but you will have to visit the exhibition to actually see and feel what you are looking at. The exhibition starts today, so please enjoy seki yuki's memorable first solo exhibition with your own senses.
