The +2 Gallery hosts exhibitions by up-and-coming young artists, linked to the exhibitions held at +1art. As a place to present experimental attempts, the gallery plans to utilize a small space that is not a white cube.
In May, Nanae Sugimoto “Ghost in the Next Room” will be held.

SUGIMOTO Nanae
I am reexamining the playfulness in the expression of prints, which I have been making for a long while. I copied down the clothes I wear, parts of my body, in order to remove the sophisticated processes and try to recall my genuine feelings. What I found then, resembled a ghost that had exited the body. I have always been conscious of the vague presence of things that are almost visible but not quite. I still do not know how my artwork will develop from this ghost-like being. However, I wished to allow this experiment to drift in this alternative space where human presence still linger.
