本展は、独自のマチエル（肌合い）とユーモラスな画風で、古代魚や亀など「時を司る動物」をライフワークとして描き続ける画家・金丸悠児による個展です。
今回の見どころは、平面作品の世界観をそのままに、画面から飛び出してきたかのような立体作品の数々です。木粉粘土や石粉粘土をベースに、背中に家を乗せた動物や流木を組み合わせた造形は、平面におけるコラージュ技法を立体へと昇華させた、金丸ならではの表現となっています。
また、本展は絵本『ホシノキオク』の出版記念展も兼ねており、会場ではサイン入りの絵本も販売。時を刻み、記憶を背負う動物たちが織りなす、温かくも神秘的な物語の世界を存分にお楽しみいただける構成となっています。
Exhibition Overview: Yuji Kanamaru Exhibition "Hoshi no Kioku" (Memory of Stars)
This exhibition features the works of Yuji Kanamaru, an artist known for his unique textures and humorous style. His lifelong work has focused on animals that embody the concept of time, such as ancient fish and tortoises.
A highlight of this exhibition is the collection of new three-dimensional works. Expanding on the success of his pieces at Art Fair Tokyo, these sculptures use wood flour and stone powder clay as a base. By incorporating elements like houses on the animals' backs and natural driftwood, Kanamaru translates the collage techniques of his paintings into a tangible, three-dimensional space, as if the animals have stepped right out of his canvases.
Furthermore, this exhibition commemorates the publication of the picture book "Hoshi no Kioku." Visitors can enjoy the warm yet mysterious world of these creatures that carry memories through time, and signed copies of the picture book are available for purchase at the gallery.
