CALM & PUNK GALLERY is pleased to present Over My Head, a solo exhibition by artist and architect Yukasa Narisada, from February 21 (Friday) to March 16 (Sunday), 2025.
The title Over My Head carries a double meaning: “passing over one’s head” and “being in a state of confusion.” Through architectural models and photographs, the exhibition explores these concepts via two central themes: “the sky,” which physically passes above us, and “radioactivity,” which exists in an intangible state of uncertainty. Developed through the lens of unbuilt architecture—architecture that has yet to be realized, the exhibition investigates how, when confronted with urgent social issues and collective trauma too vast to be directly grasped or fully perceived, we might instead imagine them through what remains unbuilt and what eludes visibility.
Narisada previously participated in the collaborative exhibition Kizu (Wounds/Architecture), curated by Gas As Interface Inc., the operating company of CALM & PUNK GALLERY, in 2024 at Paichu Gallery. This new exhibition further expands upon her works and artistic practice.
