Emi Mizukami: Not bird, not horse, not insect

This body of work approaches painting as a simultaneous act of making and erasure, reflecting how histories and narratives shift as they are transmitted over time. Centered on metamorphosis, the works consider transformation as both desire and unease, framing human experience through instability, flux, and the mutable nature of meaning. Painting becomes a site where affirmation and doubt coexist within ongoing change.
