Kiriko Shirobayashi

My works contain complex meanings not only by their direct 
transmissions but also their reminiscences. The corners of 
our minds, which conceal what we carry underneath our 
consciousness and unconsciousness, are of supreme interest 
to me. My work is not necessarily intended to direct anyone
 in any direction, but more to illuminate aspects of our 
existence and encourage the viewer to develop their own 
concept. It is by this method, I believe, that art 
cultivates understanding and exhibits its own inherent 
value.
After graduating from Osaka University of Arts, I moved to
 the United States going on to graduate from the School of 
Visual Arts with a MFA in Photography and Related Media. 
I have been exhibiting my work including Allentown Art
 Museum, the Center for Photography at Woodstock, the 
Houston Center for Photography, Delaware Center for the 
Contemporary Arts, Onoma Center, Finland, the 5th Pingyao 
International Festival and the National Museum of Belarus.
I have received awards from GEN ART, LMCC and Photography 
21 and have completed residencies at the MacDowell Colony, 
Headlands Center for the Arts, and Santa Fe Art Institute.

Yuko K.

I believe the existence of any artist’s sense of view must be 
reflected by the memories of their experiences. 
To me, the method of taking photographs and videos symbolize 
the importance of time. 
Suspending the equal value for both passing time and present 
time, gives me a diverse creator’s awareness and ability to 
recall memories of past experiences I had almost lost in the 
transforming, changing figure.  
After I graduated art university in Japan, I began working as 
a freelance illustrator and painting instructor along with my 
fine art painting and later moved to New York City. Currently 
I am living in NYC and work with various materials in painting, 
printmaking, illustration, mixed media, photographs and videos
 for the methodology of contemporary art.

In Yasui's work, there is mixture of the landscape of 
the reality and imagination, which is like a glimpse of
 never-ending tale. In this tale drawn in black
and white induces people to her unique nostalgic world.
Especially, the view-point of each persona in stories
 is dramatically impressive.

Saki Anai

The new cubism is the one which made verism and cubism
 fused.
Picasso who had a doubt to verism and Black who say 
"It was expressed while judging a target from some one
 points." were" They caught a target multilaterally 
and reorganized in one angle as the plane." 
and pursued kind every thing.That's cubism.
I thought I am" I catch a target multilaterally and 
reorganize in many angles as the solid." 
and may be able to pursue kind every thing more and 
invented a technique as the new cubism.
A target changes into this book by a viewpoint.
The matter we're seeing will be the just one.
 It's only the one out of which even its part was formed
 by some environment so that it may be possible to 
recognize the form only by one point with the spatial inside.
Where are we seeing now?
What is the true form?
I ask about kind every thing and my angle by causing a
 multilateral viewpoint by the movement.

Konatsu Tani

Born in 1993 in Osaka 
I have loved to draw people since I was a child. I started 
studying art at high school, and now I try to draw something 
you can imagine its story. 
I hope you can imagine your original stories when you see my 
arts, or think about someone you love.

Shoko Takeuchi

“Commonality”
 In order to live in a comfortable world, human beings have 
been changing the surrounding environment based on what 
they had experienced and what they had learnt. 
Whereasanimals have been changing their own shapes 
and/or theirlifestyles in order to adapt themselves to 
circumstances.
 In that sense, human beings and animals developed a 
completely different way of living. However, there 
areremarkable homogeneities between us.
 These homogeneities indicate how we enhance our quality 
of life and the essential nature of continuing to live 
through hardship or adversity; but on the other hand, 
they also indicatea lot of problems derived from the 
advanced technologywhich human beings developed.
 『Commonality』is a brochure which presents these 
beautiful homogeneity between human beings and animals.
