fordPROJECT announces the opening of Reflections, a group exhibition showcasing three young Japanese artists, Hideaki Kawashima, Makiko Kudo and Toru Kuwakubo. The exhibition inaugurates a collaboration with the Tomio Koyama Gallery in Tokyo, widely recognized as a leading gallery in the representation of contemporary Japanese artists.

The term “reflection” is defined as “careful or long consideration of thought.” In the wake of the recent tragedy, and with the current rebuilding of their nation, a new generation of Japanese artists is emerging with a unique vision that provides an innermost perspective of the “self” when seen through the looking glass of Japanese society. The paintings selected for this exhibition can be characterized as a glimpse into the souls of the people as seen by the observer.
