Rinko Kawauchi: a faraway shining star, twinkling in hand – From the series ME, 2019

In a world characterized by change and chaos, where the pace of life seems relentless, there is a quiet revolution: the art of being in the here and now. It is in the often overlooked everyday moments that we find strength. Their presence becomes a defiant act that grounds us when the world seems to be moving too fast.

The exhibition “Rinko Kawauchi: a faraway shining star, twinkling in hand” examines the facets of human transience and shows Kawauchi's own ageing process. It also poses questions about the future of our planet: Will the earth continue to warm, causing the glaciers she photographed in Iceland to melt completely? How can we improve the place we live in the time we have left?

The show is Kawauchi's attempt to confront the questions for which there are no answers. Why are we living here and now and how can we make the best of it?
