Sho Wakejima - A Memoir of Cherry Blossom
23rd OCTOBER 2008: Opening of Sho Wakejima's solo exhibition
A Memoir of Cherry Blossom
at the Serpentine Community Gallery on Thursday, from 6-8pm.
Using portraiture to express his blossoming inspirations in this exhibition,
Sho Wakejima's A Memoir of Cherry Blossom
is a mixture of Japanese and Western,
traditional and contemporary (much as he describes himself).
Sho has lived in Terania Creek for eight years.
Cherry blossoms
were a recurring theme of
a trip to Japan that Sho undertook
earlier this year.
"The blossoms had",
as Sho said,
“a powerful impact on my psyche
for their value in
traditional Japanese culture.”
