HARUKA YAMADA: MIRAGE OF SUNDIALS

HARUKA YAMADA, Sun of the City, Tartu, Estonia, 2019.

Poetic Scape is pleased to announce “Mirage of Sundials,” Haruka Yamada’s second solo exhibition with the gallery. Since commencing her Sun of the City project in 2013, Yamada has traveled to cities around the world to turn buildings into site-specific sundials. The works on view in “Mirage of Sundials” reflect on this project in various ways.

Poetic Scape opened in Nakameguro in 2011 as a gallery specializing in photography. In recent years, its program has expanded to include works in other mediums. Combining the words “poetic” and “landscape,” the gallery name reflects the ambition to show visitors a new landscape that cannot be clearly defined by language but that artists have the ability to see. Affiliated artists include Daido Moriyama, Hiroshi Nomura, Sakiko Nomura, Tracy Templeton, Toshiya Watanabe, and Haruka Yamada. In addition to its exhibition space, Poetic Scape runs a small shop that sells artist books and texts on photographic theory.
