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<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 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’ 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.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 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.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Recently, I have changed my mindset from creating works (like objects) to “painting” them. This is why I took the two words “dawn” and “draw” and titled the exhibition “Dawn + Drawn.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n I hope you will take the time to enjoy it.<\/span><\/p>\n Miyu Yamada<\/span><\/p>\n Miyu Yamada, “AB company\u201d,\u00a0910\u00d7727 mm,\u00a0Acrylic and mixed media on canvas,\u00a02023<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n biscuit gallery WEB<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Instagram<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0FACEBOOK<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0ARTSY<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[50,51],"class_list":["post-36892","insights","type-insights","status-publish","hentry","category-insight","category-stories"],"translation":{"provider":"WPGlobus","version":"3.0.0","language":"en","enabled_languages":["ko","en"],"languages":{"ko":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"en":{"title":false,"content":false,"excerpt":false}}},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/insights\/36892","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/insights"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/insights"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36892"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kiaf.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=36892"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/static-edge.kiaf.org\/web\/2023\/11\/24020817\/15-3-744x1024.jpg\")
