Yayoi Deki: Minority Flags at Perrotin Gallery


  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

Perrotin Hong Kong is pleased to present Minority Flags, the first solo exhibition in Hong Kong by the Japanese artist Yayoi Deki. Known for her mesmerizingly intricate finger-stamped paintings, Deki continues her exploration of the Flags series, transforming the geometry of various LGBTQ+ pride flags into subtly textured fields of miniature faces. The resulting works present a unique juxtaposition of cheerful aesthetics while gesturing toward deeper, more complex themes.

Deki's work is renowned for its exquisitely detailed paintings, vibrant color palette, and distinctive finger-stamping technique, conveying a sense of utter purity and eternal adolescence. In the meticulously painted "Flags" series, her singular focus manifests in a collection of miniature faces, representing an element of transcendence within the pictorial plane.
