Yuki Nakayama
YUKI NAKAYAMA (b. 1992, Okinawa, Japan) works and lives in New York, following her BFA at Parsons the New School for Design, New York, and BA at The Cooper Union, New York.
With Nakayama’s architectural training and her distinct visual language focusing on interiors and public areas,
her works are a dialogue between objects in space, as she explores the movement of stillness and its playful acts. Using superimposed perspectives, her paintings investigate the stillness of an object, its volume, and its environment. Each character has its own rhythm, claiming their relationships to one another. The objects are the pivoting points in which the shadows explore the crevices of its surroundings. They absorb and reflect like sound traveling between and within. Inviting the eyes to fluidly change in scale as one moves through and beyond.
Recent exhibitions include Nakayama’s solo show, After the Rain, at ai. in London (2024); and group shows Where is The Line, with ISA Art Gallery in Jakarta (2023), and STILL, at ai. in London (2023). Her works are held by both private and public collections, including in London, Jakarta and New York.
