Yoshino expresses herself by visually analyzing the deep-lying human mentality as if she were to dissect a human body, and assembling the parts into another phase of universe. I used to avoid such expressions, however I now find myself craving to find out the human reality as a creature living on earth.

The more fear I develop, towards the progress of technology at present, the greater becomes my desire to know. Yoshino’s expressions create the reality anyone faces, without compromising to such an extent as to be cruel. You will immediately recognize the human cells when viewing the picture, looking as if it were covered by membrane with dots.

What develops therein is the actual universe that is invisible to us. This is her solo exhibition comprising mainly her latest works since completion of graduate school studies. We at Gallery Art Composition find the contents desirable for presentation to the today’s world.

On My Solo Exhibition

In search for feelings hidden deep down in anyone’s heart……….
Pain and sorrow hard to express in words, what you can never see on the surface………
I wonder just how many people existed in this world who perfectly understood themselves as human beings. Much too few, I would say. I work daily, analyzing what lies at the root of human beings, and search, mixing my desire to be creative with that,hoping that my emotions which came and went will be recognized as nostalgia.

Last but not least, the titles of Paul Gauguin’s works:
Where did we come from?
What are we?
Where will we go?
