The neighbor's dog is barking

The neighbor's dog is barking/If you do not move/A natural expression

It Must Be Too Late presents an experimental series of online exhibitions by Yuichiro Nakamura. Beginning on July 10, works created under Nakamura's various artistic pseudonyms will be loosely and intuitively distributed across Space 1, Space 2, and Space 3 on the It Must Be Too Late website. Rather than following a strict curatorial logic, the works are assigned in an intentionally casual manner, allowing each exhibition to gradually develop its own character through the accumulation of the selected works. The three exhibitions are titled The neighbor's dog is barking (Space 1), If you do not move (Space 2), and A natural expression (Space 3). Even the date on which the distribution of works will be considered complete has not been decided. That, too, is left deliberately open and somewhat arbitrary. Curated by Ayako Okonogi.

Fushisurankonsa

Time. Artist. An entity in which the flow of time itself functions as the artist, underlying various forms of expression. Its basic form follows the Chronos-like progression from the present toward the future, although attention may also be directed specifically toward the past, the future, or the present moment. The name “Fushisurankonsa” is a meaningless anagram of “San Francisco.” Major works include a series of videos in which black and white screens alternate at irregular intervals, evoking in the viewer a heightened awareness of waiting and the passage of time.

Saki Ikuta

Artist. She actively incorporates orange as a signature color into works created across a variety of media.

Yves Klein is among the artists who have influenced her practice.
