Spanning the late 2000s to the present, this exhibition offers a broad overview of nearly two decades of Imazuʼs career. During this period, she relocated her base of operations from Japan to Bandung, Indonesia; encountered new landscapes, religions, cultures, and histories; and experienced significant personal changes, including motherhood and raising a child.

These shifts in life and environment have distinctly influenced the themes and motifs in her work. Changes in subject matter from one period to the next can be read as reflections of evolving social and personal consciousness. As Imazuʼs inner world intertwines more deeply with both Indonesia and Japan, the range of motifs she selects grows increasingly diverse, layering multiple narratives within a single canvas.

We hope that through this exhibition, visitors will discern the sharp critical perspective that anchors Imazuʼs contemporaneity: as an individual living today and as a rare artist capable of vividly representing the spirit of our time. It is our pleasure to present this exhibition as a testament to her artistic relevance.
