NADA New York 2024

JDJ is thrilled to present a solo booth by Minako Iwamura for the 2024 edition of NADA New York.

Iwamura is the most recent artist to join the JDJ’s program, and this presentation of new work will mark her first solo debut with the gallery.

Iwamura’s paintings combine curvilinear forms and subtle shifts in color to produce compositions that radiate a kind of energetic pulse. Her interest lies in the exploration of dualities—geometry and nature, the singular and the collective, premeditated delineation and intuitive movement—and the slippage between them.

With their biomorphic shapes, Minako Iwamura’s paintings exist in a liminal state that feels both abstract and corporeal.

On view at NADA New York is a suite of new works, several of which are hung on top of an intricate web of fractal-like wall drawings made with gossamer-thin lines of white charcoal.
