Photographer Kayoko Yamamoto holds a solo exhibition “⚾︎Bases Loaded⚾︎”
2022.02.14
"B GALLERY" will hold photographer Kayoko Yamamoto's first solo exhibition "⚾︎Bases Full⚾︎" from February 18th (Friday) to March 6th (Sunday) and March 21st (Monday).
I will be exhibiting about 100 photographic works that I saw and felt during the 54 days I spent in Asahikawa last winter.
I spent the winter in an unfamiliar city.
Shoveling snow and draining water pipes is a daily routine.
Mutual aid and creativity naturally arise because of inconvenience.
My lack of life is actually rich, and my heart is always ``bases loaded''
It reset my outlook on life
Records of loving days in Asahikawa
I never expected to eat so much.
The time I spent in Asahikawa was the richest, most creative, and most loving time of my life.
Thanks to you, I feel like I'm lost in life again in Tokyo.
I would be happy if everyone could feel what I saw and felt exactly one year ago.
