Whitestone Gallery Ginza New Gallery is pleased to present Cyborg Butterfly: Threshold, a solo exhibition by Yoshiaki Nakamura. This marks the artist’s fourth solo exhibition with Whitestone.
At the core of Nakamura’s artistic practice lies an exploration of the boundaries between perception—particularly hearing and vision—and the search for new possibilities of dialogue between self and others. Due to sensorineural hearing loss from childhood, Nakamura completely lost his hearing once in 2000. However, after receiving a cochlear implant in 2012, his perception of the world underwent a dramatic transformation. What had once been a monochromatic world experienced only through vision became a multilayered reality filled with color and reverberation.
This exhibition consists of two bodies of work: Cyborg Butterfly and Threshold.
