We visited Ayaka Yamamoto’s solo exhibition “organ.” The venue is void+ in Omotesando.
void+ (Omotesando)
This exhibition is the 8th installment of the exhibition series “Unknown” curated by independent curator Chika Kato.
Taking “image” as its theme, the series unfolds as a sequence of solo exhibitions by five artists — Ayaka Yamamoto, Nozomi Suzuki, Asami Shoji, Nami Yokoyama, and Midori Mitamura — held across two venues, void+ and HIGURE 17-15 cas.
Video Work “organ”
At void+ the space is divided into two rooms.
One room serves as the screening venue for the video work, showing Ayaka Yamamoto’s very first video piece.
