2019年の大原美術館の若手作家支援事業「ARKO」招聘と同館での作品発表、2020年3月に開催されたVOCA展2020への参加(佳作賞受賞)など、近年着実に評価を高めている画家・黒宮菜菜。
黒宮の作品は、主に人物像をモチーフとして、液状に溶いた油絵具による油彩作品と、重ねた和紙に染料を滲ませて描く紙作品、2タイプの技法を使い分けて制作されます。
画中に描かれた境界が曖昧で幻想的なイメージは、見る人の想像力を喚起させ、曖昧であるが故により強い印象を脳裏に焼き付けます。また絵具が流れた痕跡からは、様々の移ろいが美しくまた儚くも想起させられます。
前回、2020年の当画廊での展覧会では新しいイメージの展開として、自身で考えた物語の1シーンを切り取って描いた新シリーズを発表。実際にある小説から題材を取ったそれまでの作品から、より当人の描きたいテーマに寄った、自由で見るひとの想像力がより掻き立てられる魅力ある展示となりました。
今展では、日本の古墳時代にまでさかのぼり、実際にあったであろう史実を元に、当時の人たちの死生観や自然との関わりに着目。時空を超えて人間の根源的な本性を探る作品を展開します。また今回は油によって絵具にもたらされた流動性から、蜜蝋による物質の封印という表現の変化が新たに現れています。
なお、展覧会半ばの10/15(土)には、ノイズ界のマッドドクター・K2(草深公秀)を静岡から迎えて関連ライブ「Bird」を開催。重厚なノイズサウンドとsara(.es)のピアノが織り成す豊潤な音像が、黒宮の作品世界と呼応する特別な時間となります。
様々な困難に直面している現在の社会・世界状況にあって、描くことを通して人間性を真摯に探求し作品に昇華する黒宮菜菜の新作展。是非ともご注目、ご高覧のほどよろしくお願いいたします。

[Artist Statement]
鳥を抱いて船に乗る
紀伊半島にある古墳時代の遺跡のなかにアジサシ(渡り鳥)を抱いて葬られた少年の遺骨が発見されている。展覧会タイトルの「鳥を抱いて船に乗る」という言葉は、鳥を抱いて永遠の眠りについたこの子供から着想を得たものだ。
子供の魂が迷わず無事に他界へと導かれるように。そして、再び渡来し自分たちのもとへ蘇ってくるように。親族が渡り鳥であるアジサシに想いを託したのであろうか。
船のイメージもまた古墳時代の遺跡からヒントを得ている。被葬者の棺を船形に加工しているケース(実用された本物の舟が使用されている場合もある)が日本の各所に見られるのだ。
魂を乗せた船は他界へと旅立つが、再びこの地に帰ってくるものなのであろう。船の特性を考えれば行ったきりではないはずだ。生と死を往来する器。それが船に込められたメタファーだと思う。
人が人の生や死をどのように考え、解釈してきたのか。自明である有限の命のことを考えないわけにはいかないのは人間の性分だ。わたしは、その性的な思考にとても興味がある。

Invited by the young generation artist supporting program “ARKO"started by Ohara Art Museum(Okayama, Japan), participating the VOCA2020 Exhibition (honorable mention award) in March 2020, Nana Kuromiya is an artist whose reputation has been steadily growing in recent years.
Kuromiya's works are mainly based on the motif of the human figure, and she makes works by two types of approaches. One is oil paintings using the liquid oil paints, and the other is works blotted by dyes on the layers of Japanese papers.
The fantasy and ambiguous images that are depicted in the paintings arouse views' imagination, and more ambiguous it is, the stronger the impression it leaves on the mind. Moreover, the tracks leaving by paints on the surface evokes the beauty and the fantasy of fleeting.
In the last exhibition, as the development of the images created in the works shown in the previous exhibition held at Gallery Nomart in 2020, she announced a new series of works that originated from one scene of the story she made by herself. Based on the works whose theme taken from actual novels, the exhibition reflected what Kuromiya wanted to depict more than before and was more free, appealing to inspire viewers’ imagination.
In this exhibition, the artist focuses on people's view of life and death and their relationship with nature at that time based on the the historical facts that date back to the Kofun period in Japan and would have actually existed. In addition, this time there is a new change in expression, the material sealed by beeswax, which developed from the approach she uses oil to bring her paintings fluidity.
In addition, halfway through the exhibition on 15 Oct(sat), a related live performance "Bird" will be held with K2 (Kimihide Kusafuka)from Shizuoka, Japan, the mad doctor of the noise sound world . This will be a special time when the mellow soundscape waved by strong noise sound and the piano performance sara(.es) is echoing Kuromiya’s works of art.
In the current social and global situation where we are facing various difficulties, Nana Kuromiya earnestly explores humanity through painting and converts it into her works of art. please looking forward to Kuromiya’s new works exhibition.

[Artist Statement]
In the boat with the bird.
The remains of a boy who was buried with a tern(a migratory bird) have been found in the ruins of the Kofun period on the Kii Peninsula. The title of the exhibition "In the boat with the bird.” was inspired by this child who embraced the bird and fell into eternal sleep.
Perhaps in order to find the way that the solo of the child could be lead to other world without getting lost, and wish he could come back again and come back to them, his family leaves their wishes with a migratory tern.
The image of boat is inspired by the ruins of the Kofun period. The coffin was made in a shape of boat (There are also some cases that a real boat are used )can be seen in many places in Japan.
The boat carrying souls traveling to other world is going to be back to the place of departure again. Considering the characteristics of the boat, it suppose not just to go away. It is a vessel comes and goes between life and death. This is the metaphor behind the image of boats.
How do people think of and explain life and death？ It is human nature to think about the limited life that we know clearly. I’m very interested in thinking of this kind of questions.
