LeBasse Projects presents 'Familiar Strangers', a solo exhibition from Japanese artist Yoskay Yamamoto. The exhibition will run from June 12th 2010 through July 3rd 2010 with the artist reception being held Saturday, June 12th 7-10pm. This will be the artist’s third solo exhibition with the gallery and represents a breakthrough in work from Yamamoto containing both painting and sculptural work. Familiar Strangers is inspired by a detachment from one’s inner self and the rediscovery of ones true nature. Using some of his iconic characters, Yamamoto adds new depth including a thematic use of flowers in the work. Flowers have been chosen because according to Yamamoto. ‘…they carry the essence of growth, but also have such a fragile state.’ The cycle of growth, blossoming and decay echo the circular nature of his previous exhibitions.
