Artist Hiromi Stringer revisits her ongoing project "Umeyama Reports," which chronicles the travels and observations of Shoei Umeyama, Stringer’s fictional character. Umeyama is a Japanese man from the mid-1800s using time-teleportation to visit today’s modern world.
Umeyama’s drawings, artifacts, and observations are displayed in the imagined Umeyama Time Teletransportation Museum, showcasing Umeyama’s achievements and the legacy of his history as a time traveler. Ink paintings/reports serve as his record of what he observed as he made sense of the modern-day U.S. Stringer’s exhibition and Umeyama’s imaginary findings represent an alternate perspective and reflection on today’s contemporary society.
Following the opening day, the exhibit will be on display through June 4.
