Mono no aware is a Japanese aesthetic and philosophical concept that recognizes the beauty in particularly transitory things; often illustrated with natural phenomena. Curated by Anthony Vaccarello, Miya Ando’s solo exhibition at Saint Laurent Rive Droite, Los Angeles investigates this idea in her new installation of sculptures, painting and silkscreens. On view is a recreation of the karesansui (dry Zen garden) of Ryōanji Temple in Kyoto. Ando’s version of this historically significant garden consists of 15 shou sugi ban (charred wood) cubes, coated with silver nitrate. Exhibition on view through May 12 2025, 469 N Rodeo Dr, Beverly Hills, CA 90210.@ysl @saintlaurentbabylone photos: @adriantoynton #saintlaurent #miyaando #ysl #saintlaurentrivedroite more info: www.ysl.com

TRANSFORMATIVE ENERGIES Two-Dimensional Works by Yoshio Ikezaki, Miya Ando, and Joseph Akerman Curated by Hollis Goodall March 22 – May 18, 2025 Kylin Gallery is thrilled to announce its first curated exhibition of 2025. “Transformative Energies: Two-Dimensional Works by Yoshio Ikezaki, Miya Ando, and Joseph Akerman” features three artists and their respective approaches to depicting universal vital energy (Japanese: ki; Chinese: qi), with a Buddhist reverence for the transitory qualities of all things. These three artists sincerely appreciate one another’s works and share a fascination with ki energy and the ephemerality and transitoriness that it enforces in the universe.

My MIT Press book will be available October 2025! "Water of the Sky A Dictionary of 2,000 Japanese Rain Words" Please visit The MIT Press website (link in bio) for further information: A breathtakingly elegant visual dictionary of 2000 Japanese words for rain, with 100 drawings in indigo. In Water of the Sky, artist Miya Ando offers us a beautifully rich, bilingual, visual dictionary for rain. Through a collection of 2000 Japanese words, their English interpretations, and 100 drawings, Ando describes the breadth and diversity of rain’s many expressions: when it falls, how it falls, and how its observer might be transformed physically or emotionally by its presence. The words range from the prosaic to esoteric, extending from the meteorological (mukaame, or “very fine rain that falls in spring”) to the mystical (bunryūu, or “rain that splits a dragon's body in half”) and from the minute (kisame, or “raindrops that fall off the leaves and branches of trees”) to the vast (takuu, or “blessed rain that quenches all things in the universe”).Ando’s visual interpretations of these terms are not so much illustrations as evocations, attempts to embody or imagine each rain’s precise and essential quality. The book presents 100 of these 2000 drawings of rain accompanied by the full index of 2000 Japanese words and their approximate English equivalents, presented alphabetically using a hybrid Japanese-English alphabetization rubric. 208 pp
