[Overview]
This is a solo exhibition by Wakaba Yamashita, an artist from Susono City, Shizuoka Prefecture, and currently residing in Fuji City. For this exhibition, she constructed a space combining three-dimensional sculptures, two-dimensional works, and window paintings, drawing inspiration from the emotions, anxieties, and prayers she experienced while diving at the bottom of the ocean. The paintings on the glass surfaces along the road, visible from the outside as a translucent blue, changed their appearance with the changing light throughout the exhibition period. Multiple works, including past pieces, were exhibited and sold. A drawing workshop by the artist was held during the exhibition period (October 5th).
