Yukako Shibata: COLOUR SHADOW

2 July 2013 @ 12:00 pm - 20 July 2013 @ 6:00 pm

| Free

London-based Japanese artist Yukako Shibata has long explored the myriad possibilities of capturing fleeting colours through painting which takes sculptural form and in this exhibition shows recent, glorious pieces on this theme. Shibata’s work is imbued with a sense of clarity and purity. The viewer is invited to share the artist’s enjoyment of simple forms and playful compositions of shapes, experiencing a feast of undulating rhythms and forms, as well as the complex interplay of light and the human perceptual system.

The Royal College of Art graduate and a shortlisted artist of FACK! West London Art Prize, Yukako Shibata has been based in the UK for 20 years. Shibata’s work shares a common vocabulary, which is essentially minimal, of objects that are touched with a Japanese aesthetic of subtlety and simplicity in colour and shape. In this exhibition audiences are invited to share this aesthetic experience offered by the artist, whose visual language is cultivated by both British and Japanese background.

2 – 20 July, 2013 Tuesday – Saturday, 12- 6pm
