Cleverson Oliveira “Rainy Days”

Miyako Yoshinaga

This event has ended.

MIYAKO YOSHINAGA presents its 5th solo exhibition of Cleverson Oliveira, the Brazilian contemporary artist. The exhibition, Rainy Days. On November 18, 2017, Oliveira will release a new publication in conjunction with his exhibit, Beyond the Surface, opening at the Museo Oscar Neimeyer in Brazil.

Rainy Days explores the line between reality and illusion. At first glance, the works appear to be monochromatic photographs of rain, but a second look reveals them to be drawings filled with subtle intricacies. The exhibit challenges traditional representations of nature by using Oliveira’s memories, inventiveness, and imaginary landscapes that give the impression of reality.
