White Conduit Projects
8–25 May 2025
Private View 7 May, 6–8pm

Opening 8 May at White Conduit Projects in London, Shifting Perspectives showcases the work of three photographers inspired by their experiences in Japan. Karen Knorr will present selections from her ongoing Monogatari series, which has been exploring Japanese heritage and culture since 2011. Alicia Dobrucka and Olivier Richon will present works that express their sense of taste and vision through still-life photography, created during their residency at Tokyo Arts and Space (TOKAS) in 2016.

When we temporarily relocate to another country, the scenery of our everyday life changes dramatically, as two cultures, languages, and landscapes coexist in our consciousness. Experiencing a foreign country firsthand differs significantly from the knowledge we acquire through mass media. In this context, we connect with our new environment as individuals, rather than being defined by our origins, customs, practices, or political backgrounds. This experience creates a liminal space, free from the confines of anthropological studies, where new creative ideas can flourish. The works in this exhibition produced in “No-Place,”as defined by French philosopher Marc Ogé, are truly original and transcend the clichés of the Orient, offering valuable modern documentary insights.
