eitoeiko is pleased to announce the exhibition ‘Forgetting the new world seen a while ago, and the moment of seeing again’ by Junta Egawa. ‘My painting becomes more intimate’, Junta Egawa(b.1978, Kanagawa) said about his new work. ‘I think that the distance with those who look at my work approached.’ His new painting cannot avoid the expression as a reflection of what we lost by the disaster. Therefore, as well as it indicates what remained after and it foresees what appears newly. ‘A work should not be made interesting too much’, Egawa said. It means that there is no transient essence in the artwork which was loved by people for a long time. The artist who wavered in the woods of abstraction felt clear sound for the unexplored color and composition, and has tried the adventure of taking shape. In other words, Egawa attempts to construct another present by classical method.
