In recent years, Kanagawa Prefectural Gallery has been exhibiting installations by young and active artists, such as From in silence by Chiharu Shiota (2007), Between this and that by Takehito Koganezawa (2008), Kneading by Taro Izumi, and many others. This time, we are going to present a group show, Everyday Life / Hidden Reasons, by 3 young artists who are currently working in New York. This is the second group show as a sequel of Everyday Life / Another Space (2009), and the artists are going to exhibit their works taking full advantage of our 5 unique exhibition spaces, 1,300 ㎡ in total. The artists, who have hidden reasons, are going to create their new artworks with hidden reasons and exhibit them in the exhibition spaces which have hidden reasons. Come and find out these hidden reasons.

Satoru Eguchi
He creates installation work using motifs of familiar furniture and daily necessities from everyday life. He combines techniques of drawing and painting and constructs three-dimensional work. He provides us with a rediscovery of the flow of memory and reality, and the relationship of oneself and others by recreating normal worlds with intentional gaps and deformations.

Kazue Taguchi
She has created an installation work at Kanagawa Prefectural Gallery’s largest exhibition room. It’s a massive work with intersecting and waving lights from projections of LED lights on silver plastic films. She reconstructs light and the flow of time in the natural world that surrounds humans making full use of her unique technique, which can be described as a form of industrial art.

Midori Harima
She connects fragments of unspecified multiple images, which she has picked up from books or the Internet, to create art objects of humans, animals and daily necessities. She has constructed an installation work which creates a feeling of tension by overlapping image projections on these objects. She re-examines our relationship with media, society and everyday life, which is to say the flow of time.
