I visited Iori Nagashima’s solo exhibition “Roadside Letters.” The venue was the art salon SCÈNE in Omotesando.
In 2021, this was Iori Nagashima’s first solo show since the one held at Gallery Wada in July.
Displayed in the spacious, calm atmosphere of the art salon SCÈNE, the works revealed expressions quite different from those seen last time.

An exhibition in which the strength of Nagashima’s portraiture stood out with particular clarity.
