Imura art gallery tokyo is proud to present Yoshimi Miyamoto's solo exhibition, "CANON".

Yoshimi Miyamoto, is depecting the world of the living, bringing a unique light, in her quasi monochromatic composition. The artist's drawings of vivacious flowers submerged, are reminding the dead flowers that, once overwhelmed in the water, acquire a new chance to live. Concerning her portraits, they have been selected by the artists, amongst the wide amount of images that produced the consumption society, for the melancholic expression that can be find somehow in these women faces.

Everything that lives and die, it's what the artist invites us to consider. When depicting the death, Miyamoto is bringing her model to life. She's showing what has disappeared, the shadow of a moment that is not anymore. Together with the flowers, the illusion of the artist's standard (Canon), fixed on the canvas, spread the idea of an invisible world.

We look forward to see you at the first exhibition in Tokyo of Yoshimi Miyamoto, an artist born and currently living in Kansai area.
