【Kirico is on view!】 Kirico: My Womb
Wed. Mar 4 - Sat. April 4, 2026
Gallery Yamaki Fine Art is pleased to announce an exhibition of new works by photographer Kirico. This marks her third solo exhibition at our gallery.
The presentation consists of two series, Self Portrait and Object, created following the artist’s experience of undergoing a hysterectomy on March 4, 2025.
The loss of an organ is not merely a medical procedure; it brings subtle changes to bodily perception and awareness of identity. As time passes, wounds heal and daily routines continue as though nothing has occurred. Unnoticed by others and at times almost forgotten even by the self— Kirico turns her attention to this ambiguous sensation and contemplates the quiet yet persistent sense of being alive that rises in the aftermath of loss.
Throughout her practice, Kirico has explored intimate relationships and the female body, opening personal experience toward broader human concerns. In this exhibition, a deeply private event expands into reflection on bodily memory, continuity of existence, and the fundamental question of what it means to live. Within the flow of time that inclines toward forgetting, how might the memory of what has disappeared remain active in the present?
Through a quiet awareness situated between loss and renewal, this exhibition offers an opportunity to reconsider our own physical being and the condition of life.
