The middle of a journey.
The scenery you see, the birdsongs you hear, the scent of nostalgic flowers you smell…
We would like you to have a comfortable time surrounded by unforgettable memories.
Pack a fun extraordinary time into your bag and start on a new day.
The theme of the art project is "Collection".
It came from an image that is colored by various "memories" we have collected while strolling in Tokyo.
Bank Bed Gallery is pleased to introduce works by artists who are based in Tokyo.
The art works as the "memories" can be traveled with you. We hope that you will find your favorite piece.

Mai Yamaga / 山家 麻以
I want to create painting that no one has ever seen. Painters have always been seeking for a new way of expressing and presenting it for a very long time. And it is said that every expression has already been exhausted today and new ones are not coming out any more. However, I as a painter still want to pursue the new expression. I will explore new expressions and continue to challenge without fear of failure.
今まで誰も見たことがない絵を描きたい。昔から絵描き達は常に新しい表現方法を模索し発表してきて、現代では全て出尽くしてしまい、新しいものはもう出てこないのではないかと言われています。ですが、絵を描く者としてはやはりそこを追求したくなります。新たな表現を模索し、失敗を恐れず挑戦し続けたい。
