MAKI Gallery is pleased to present Year-End Light, its second solo exhibition with Ayumu Yamamoto, at Maebashi Galleria Gallery 2. The show features new paintings by the Tokyo-based artist alongside a site-specific installation extending through the venue’s eight-meter-high atrium.

From canvases richly layered with paint to drawings rendered with delicate lines, Yamamoto’s works emerge through a dynamic interplay of diverse elements. Viewers are encouraged to navigate these disparate fragments and overlapping textures, tracing a visual narrative as one would a map unfolding before them. Immersed in moments where light and darkness intertwine, the artist’s eclectic creations invite us to pause and explore this complicated world we all live in.

MAKI Gallery is pleased to announce Background Materials, an exhibition of new work by Los Angeles-based artist Mungo Thomson, in coordination with his concurrent exhibition Walking Pictures at Isetan Shinjuku and his collaboration with fashion label sacai.

Thomson’s practice fuses film, sound, sculpture and photography—the artist is known for his engagement with cultural signs and analog materials, repurposing them into immersive, optical and kinetic experiences. The works on view in the exhibition shuffle and remix cultural signs into immersive optical experiences, whether in towering video animations, room-filling wallpaper installations, individually animating lenticular prints or space-and-viewer-reflecting mirror works.
