Anna Gonzalez Noguchi

24/8*

May 14–June 13, 2026

Derosia hosting Gallery Vacancy

Gallery Vacancy presents 24/8*, a special solo project by Japanese-Spanish artist Anna Gonzalez Noguchi in the front room of Derosia’s reception office. Set within a working environment where labor, administration, and creativity quietly overlap, the presentation offers a seamless framework for Gonzalez Noguchi’s wall-based sculptures, which are composed from stationery, folded aluminum, brass elements, and fragments of magazine pages. The works belong to the artist’s ongoing Kamidana series, titled after the Japanese word for “god shelf”—miniature altars commonly found in homes and businesses. Informed by Gonzalez Noguchi’s cross-cultural background, the series draws from an intimate archive of personal materials inherited from her Japanese grandparents, which often permeates the surfaces of her work. Through sculptural assembly, handcrafted forms, prosaic artefacts, and found images are layered together, suggesting an ongoing renegotiation of memory, inheritance, and devotion.
