Bambinart Gallery is pleased to present "PASSAGE", a solo exhibition by Aru Sunaga.

Aru Sunaga (b. Gunma prefecture 1989) has previously been part of the "A Contemporary Art Show By Contemporary Art Students-Produced by Mr X" (Kaikai Kiki Gallery, Hidari Zingaro/Tokyo) and GEISAI TAIWAN#2(Taipei) in 2010, and most recently shown at our booth for the 2012 TRANS ART TOKYO. This exhibition will be her first solo exhibition.

Sunaga crafts her images from sentences randomly selected from text, letting irregularity enter the otherwise continuous flow of narrative so as to deplete words from their assigned meanings. In doing so, Sunaga's images begin to have a life on its own, sometimes even surprising the artist himself. Are the shapes and shadows resurrected fragments of a long lost memory, or completely imagined? Where do these images come from, and how are they born? Sunaga continues with these questions in mind, also asking the viewer to ponder upon their own inner images.
