New works by Hamburg based artist Asana Fujikawa.
About
For her first exhibition oto & kawa at the Drawing Room, Asana Fujikawa was inspired by a Japanese Shintō myth. Superstition and religion, fear and desire, heroism and monsters play a role in it - especially with regard to the influence of water or the sea on humans. The artist draws from Japan's long ceramic tradition, draws and etches and composes her own texts. In the process, all the components fit organically into one another without a fixed chronology. In this way, new cross-media narratives emerge that are not self-contained but liquid and permeable - all the figures, be they heroes and heroines, monsters or containers of souls, come from a coherent cosmos and reappear again and again in her work.
Asana Fujikawa was awarded the 2022 Working Scholarship for Visual Arts of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg. In 2019/20, the Georg Kolbe Museum in Berlin and Haus Oppenheim in Wroclaw presented the double show "Asana Fujikawa / David Hockney. Figures of the Floating World".
