Hannah Traore Gallery celebrated the opening of Shihori Yamamoto's solo exhibition, I Am Here To Love. Marking Yamamoto’s first solo presentation with the gallery, the exhibition is a bold new body of work that pairs four intricate ink-based drawings on paper produced between 2019 and 2023 with an immersive womb-inspired dome installation. Yamamoto’s interdisciplinary approach, drawing upon her background in architecture and her fascination with physics, psychology, and biology, results in an exhibition as provocative as it is cerebral. I Am Here To Love invites viewers into the artist’s own universe: art and science, mind and body, converge along the lines of Yamamoto’s personal experience made universal.
