Gureaza 2 - Grateful Others

Mon Koutaro Ooyama

CONTRAST is pleased to announce “Grateful Others 2,” a solo exhibition by Nara-based artist Mon Koutaro Ooyama, which will be held from Saturday, September 21st to Friday, October 4th. "Grateful Others" is an ongoing exhibition based on the concept of a fictional manga series. In this context, "Others" refers to everything that exists beyond our recognition. "Grateful Others" represents the process of constructing metacognition and deepening introspection by contemplating these Others. Following last year's solo exhibition at mograg gallery, the connection between the various works in the exhibition creates a rhetoric that evokes a narrative. Through this exhibition, visitors will experience the artist's cosmology, rooted in Early Buddhism, Zen, and physicality. We look forward to your visit.

About CONTRAST
In 2022, CONTRAST opened as a creative space in Yoyogi-Hachiman, Tokyo. The interior, based on a 45-year-old structure, consists of three floors under the concept of "reconstruction," and is managed by IN FOCUS, a digital branding studio that operates under the theme of "We propose new perspectives through a collective pursuit of digital excellence.". The space not only serves as its own creative space but also aims to be widely open to the public, providing a space for continuous and experimental reconstruction by its users, breaking free from limitations. Focusing on various forms of expression and encountering the creators who produce them, we will come to understand the importance of "CONTRAST = comparison" in our endeavors.
