Urara Tsuchiya's Quarantine Art at Ada Project Rome
Japanese artist Urara Tsuchiya (born 1979) presents works created during the COVID-19 quarantine at Ada Project in Rome. The exhibition shifts from her usual hedonistic approach to reflect on the unbearable lightness of being, exploring memory, love's hormonal storms, and the banality of repetition imposed by lockdown. With irony, Tsuchiya builds a Wunderkammer of familiar yet unsettling objects, where the light installation (almost a zen garden) contrasts with the conceptual dramas evoked. The show was reviewed by Niccolò Lucarelli.
