小林繭乃 / 三平硝子

English below We are pleased to present Monster, a two-person exhibition by Mayuno Kobayashi and Shoko Mihira at Artglorieux GALLERY OF TOKYO. Working in the tradition of Nihonga, Mayuno Kobayashi visualizes inner states—emotions, memories, and fluctuations of thought that arise in everyday life—through the forms of animals and supernatural beings. Her works unfold a distinctive pictorial world where delicacy and unease coexist. Shoko Mihira, on the other hand, reconstructs personal experiences, social phenomena, and emotional responses into “monsters,” expressed as three-dimensional works using borosilicate glass and burner-work techniques. Formed in intense heat, her glass sculptures embody both transparency and tension, leaving a powerful impression on the viewer. In addition to new works by each artist, the exhibition will also feature collaborative pieces created by the two. Through the intersection of painting and sculpture, Nihonga and glass, the exhibition presents new interpretations of the “monster” motif. Prior to the exhibition, works by both artists will be on view in the window display on the first floor of GINZA SIX from February 12 (Thu) to February 25 (Wed), 2026.
