Creative duo Leta Sobierajski and Wade Jeffree delivered their first international exhibition “Music To Your Eyes”. They bring our distinctly optimistic, unapologetically vibrant, and supremely fun world of explosive colour to Calm and Punk's gallery space in Tokyo.
Music to your eyes is an exploration of harmony through visual stimulation of our work in order to explore colour and form. Our goal is to ignite a sensation for the viewer that is optimistic yet also leaves them with a sense of joy. Ultimately it is our way we describe our work: as visual music. Similar in concept to audible music, everything we look at and engage with has its own rhythm. Through the use of multiple mediums ranging from photography, wall reliefs, inflatables and a virtual reality experience, we encourage visitors to enter their world of insatiable optimism and explosive color.
The photographs on these walls are real—they are not 3D. The bodysuits were designed specifically for this show, and the sculpted shields held by those bodies were cut and painted by hand. We embrace the fact that they are imperfect and flawed. In the photographs on the walls, we camouflage ourselves as body sculptures, drenched in pattern and color that transcends from these images to sculptural wall hangings to inflatables hanging from the ceiling and finally to virtual reality discoverable through a headset. Our goal is to extend their vision to multiple dimensions, so you may enjoy their colorful world no matter which reality you may live in.

Finding connections between nature and human body: a violet eyelid remembering a purple galaxy, the veins in our eyes that resemble a red striated marble or tangled fingers blended with wave power.
Lena Pogrebnaya was born in Odessa, Ukraine. She first fell for photography in 2009 while studying at Odessa State Academy of Civil Engineering and Architecture. After graduating in 2011 Lena continued her photographic exploration. Brutalist architecture of the 50s and 70s quickly became Pogrebnaya’s main inspiration. The essence of her projects lies in monumental constructions featuring concrete, granite, decorative tiles of multiple colors and… people merged with the aesthetics.
Her artistic investigation goes beyond conventional approach that nature and industrial objects should be opposed. For Lena Pogrebnaya architectural forms are part of the nature — being creations of people, nature’s products themselves. In her “nature creating nature” universe a human being feels harmony both in the wild and urban environment. Her models looks dignified in any site, and yet they are simply a unit of the beautiful surrounding just like everything else in the picture.
French art director and illustrator Jerome Masi shares his flat-styled artworks that looks like a paper-cut masterpieces
“From Rembrandt I’ve learned how little light there is in man. The Rembrandtesque portrait exhausts all its light resources; there is no more light in it. Light itself seems to be the interior refraction of a light that dies somewhere, far away. Rembrandt’s chiaroscuro doesn’t derive from bringing clarity and darkness in close proximity but from the illusion of light and from the infinity of the shadow. From Rembrandt I’ve learned that the world is born out of the shadow…”

Fresh graduate from the Film Academy of Baden Württemberg, Germany, Henning Himmelreich shares his short motion design film “After Silence”
After Silence addresses the inner process of mental and emotional regeneration of human psyche. To visually represent this process the film uses the imaginary from Egyptian mythology and its concept of the journey into the afterlife in an abstract manner.
The process of self-purification is visualized through both abstract and direct representations of deities and other mythological images, combined with modern graphical elements.
The protagonist is trapped in an uninhabitable world reigned by chaos, which is a visual representation of her own state of mind. As she enters subconsciousness, a mixture of self-reflection and external judgement makes her undergo self-purification. By passing all stages successfully and facing her demons she reaches a state of perfect harmony that purifies the soul.
The world around her changes correspondingly and darkness becomes light.
American artist Brian Alfred is best known for his collages, paintings, and digital animations. He works fluidly between classic and contemporary media like drawing and digital art, and he depicts subject matters that range from architecture and technology to modern idealism and romantic heroism. Best known for his works that examine how people's perception of their surrounding world and culture is mediated by technology, Alfred's practice is often accounted for as socio-critical and a mirror of our contemporary times.
He creates flattened and usually depopulated worlds of color reproduced in two dimensional bold patterns, often derived from found images. Alfred explores the effect public imagery has on individual perceptions of reality by using newspaper photographs, television advertising, and the internet as source. Inscrutable scenes in his paintings and animations remind the viewer of how public media tend to show a glimpse of reality: relevant information is cropped out of the image and the overall picture is flattened into a coherent colourful narrative of a simple ideology.
