RENA KUDOH
UNDEPENDABLE GARDEN
MAY 17-29, 2022



Rena Kudos’s explorations are guided by her life experiences in different residences and daily surroundings.
Her sculptures have always been extracted from both experience and imagination and characterized by personification and ambiguous identity. This exhibition features eleven sculptures portraying imaginary hybrid creatures inspired from the artist’s gardening experience.⠀

“It was a dry, parched place at first, but after a little tilling the soil and planting the germinated seeds, it began to thrive. Sometimes cats visited there to poop. Many insects also started to come.. The bugs were constantly moving around. Everything in the garden was settling down in a short span of time and I felt it like a microcosmos.”
