Sui Yumeshima, “The Howling”
February 22nd – March 23rd, 2025
Haven Gallery is honored to present Japan based artist, Sui Yumeshima, for her second solo show, entitled “The Howling”, at the gallery. “The Howling” features a collection of new works that rework historical motifs and paintings, along with alchemical design, to create new mythologies fusing a western perspective of art with surrealistic tendencies found in Japanese subcultures. Legendary beasts mingle with anthropomorphic animals and Botticelli-esque females glow amidst magical night skies and verdantly fecund landscapes, creating a visual feast and timeless narrative, connecting the surreal with the material, and the past with the present.
