Mika Ninagawa has gone beyond the realm of photography, working in a wide range of fields including film, design, and fashion.
This exhibition explores the essence of the artist's photography with the theme of "fiction and reality." It brings together works created from a diverse range of perspectives, including "Eternal Flowers" and "Cherry Blossoms," which depict vibrantly colored flowers, "Portraits of the Time," which depicts famous people and athletes, and "Beautiful Days," which marks a new frontier for her. This will be a rare opportunity to fully experience the world of Mika Ninagawa's work, which continues to vividly demonstrate the cutting edge of her time without limiting herself to any particular genre of expression.
