In this exhibition, I aim to take the inherent sense of scale that we see but do not notice in the surrounding scenery, reduce it to sculptural material, and reconstruct it. If what we see is the surface, what I am exploring is the structure and skeleton that underlies it. To a field of vision that encompasses horizontal lines skating and intersecting over the surface, l introduce a deeper perspective that slices through vertically and raises the surface. I am exploring the possibilities of sculpture with a new sense of scale.

AIN SOPH DISPATCH
Opened in 2006 as Nagoya's premium gallery. We hold more than eight exhibitions annually and feature great pieces of artwork by various artists every time. We also pro-actively seek young emerging artists as well as independent artists and help bridge the gap between them and dealers, buyers and collectors at our own space or by participating in art trade shows and expos. Our motto is to offer these talented artists an opportunity to step into the spotlight and be more recognized than ever before.
