Where does this constant craving lead us? It could pave the way to riches—or leave us high and dry…

Trendy Gallery is excited to roll out “HUNGER HOUR”, the third solo exhibition by YAMADA. This time around, he digs deep into the never-ending hunger and desires fueled by the media we gobble up daily. His thought-provoking pieces ask the big question: where does this constant craving lead us? It could pave the way to riches—or leave us high and dry.

Let’s give a big hand to this eye-opening show that pulls back the curtain on modern life through the frame of a painting. Inspired by digital media, radio, TV, and print, YAMADA’s works shine a light on the strange world of people who can’t seem to get enough. These captivating pieces remind us how this endless appetite can blind us to the simple joys of life, leaving us unable to soak in even a single scene of true contentment.

About the Artist

Every piece of YAMADA’s artwork represents everything in his life. It’s not an exaggeration to say that it embodies the entire world of one artist.

Looking back, as a boy, there was one activity he could never do without: watching television. He eagerly awaited his favorite cartoons, and another passion of his was classic films from the 80s and earlier. During times when the screen was not within reach, his imagination would flourish, filling his mind with ideas that he would quickly transfer to paper with a pencil. Art became his vehicle, guiding him along the road known as life.

The exhibition “HUNGER HOUR” by YAMADA will be open for free viewing from 21 December 2024 - 16 February 2025 at Trendy Gallery, 2nd floor, River City Bangkok.
