Exhibition of approximately 30 new works celebrating the joy of living and dynamic vitality: Ceramic artist Mayumi Nakamura's solo exhibition 'Opera'

GEEK PICTURES Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Tamotsu Osano) is pleased to announce the solo exhibition 'Opera' by ceramic artist Mayumi Nakamura, which will be held at Galerie GEEK/ART in Shibuya from Saturday, April 4, 2026, to Sunday, May 10, 2026.

The theme of this exhibition is 'Opera,' a celebration of the joy of living, featuring a new worldview where past series intersect.

Ceramic artist Mayumi Nakamura has consistently channeled her thoughts on herself, the era, and society into her ceramics at every turning point in her career. This includes the 'Jizai no Hana' (Flowers of Freedom)* series, which wraps the anxieties and weaknesses hidden within oneself in the powerful message: 'It is fine to be yourself. You just need to let your own flower bloom.' The 'Universe' series, which sublimated the loneliness of the divided world after the 2020 pandemic into hope through beautifully blending colors. And the 'Chu ni Hana' (Flowers in the Air) series, which fused the worldviews of 'Jizai no Hana' and 'Universe.'

In the solo exhibition 'Opera,' opening on Saturday, April 4, these three series will intersect to newly celebrate the 'joy of living.' The collection of works, which captures the moment when the vitality hidden within dynamically awakens, will vividly resonate with the senses of the viewers.

Please enjoy this exhibition, which is perfect for spring, a season when flowers bloom in the gentle warmth and one can feel the breath of life.

*A term that conveys the act of facing the soil—a gift of nature—and 'letting the flower you truly want to bloom, bloom.'

The 'Opera' solo exhibition will feature approximately 30 new works, including tea utensils! Furthermore, special pop-up events with flower shops and tea shops will also be held.

At the gallery venue, items such as sake cups, tea utensils...
