The exhibition brings together selected works from two of Ogawa’s acclaimed series, The Dreaming and Into the Silence, presented within a single exhibition space. “The Dreaming“ is a series composed of monochrome photographs made during the artist’s extensive travels around the world over many years. Looking back at these negatives later in life, what remained was not a record of journeys, but memories resembling dreams. Light and landscapes encountered in distant places, rain and mist, and the atmosphere of anonymous streets gradually transformed over time, living on as quiet echoes within the traveler’s memory. The title ”Dream / Silence — Between the Dream and the Silence” reflects the artist’s enduring fascination with memory, travel, and silence. Moving between these two bodies of work, visitors are invited to experience the resonances of dream and silence, wandering and stillness. This exhibition features original prints produced with the artist’s close involvement throughout the printing process. The light, landscapes, and traces of time encountered during his travels are ultimately realized as physical works through the medium of the photographic print. We invite visitors to experience the rich tonalities and quiet afterglow embodied within these photographs.
