WALLS TOKYO is pleased to present Haruna Niiya solo exhibition "Unforgettable", running from September 18 to October 18, 2025.

Niiya has primarily exhibited silkscreen prints featuring motifs of grasses, trees, and animals such as birds. Observing nature—flowers, animals, the wind, stars, and the reflection of water—she comes to feel that she is not alone, but rather part of a cycle that connects the past to the future. To ensure these landscapes are never forgotten, she crystallizes them into works of art, carefully affirming each one.
This will be her first solo exhibition at WALLS TOKYO, and her first in about two years. We warmly invite you to visit.

September 18 (Thu) to October 18 (Sat), 2025
Open: Wed-Sat 12:00-19:00
Closed: Sun, Mon, Tue
