I would be happy if getting to know the artworks and artists will lead you to an encounter with a work of art that is special to you.
I hope to convey to you the joy of decorating your home with contemporary artworks and bringing art into your daily life.
This time, we introduce [VR Exhibition].
The painter Yuko Kawada, whom I introduced before, has been holding a 3D solo exhibition in a virtual space since last month, utilizing a German virtual gallery website called kunstmatrix.
It is a very interesting structure, so why don’t you have a look and experience it for yourself!

The duration of the exhibition has been extended due to support
The German virtual gallery website [kunstmatrix] is free to view. However, the artists who create the works are paid to use the site.
In order to keep the exhibition going as long as possible, there is a limit to what the artist can do on her own. So she explained the process on YouTube and solicited support.
[Quote from the artist]
“Thanks to your support, I was able to extend the duration of the exhibition by one month each for about three months.
Therefore, I was able to open two more virtual space solo exhibitions this month.”
This virtual gallery website [kunstmatrix] has English, French, and German language capabilities, so you can appeal to the world.
Art activities are also a part of supporting artists. Even if you don’t paint or purchase a painting, it is still meaningful support.
