wamono art is delighted to announce the exhibition of Jun Tanaka, a Japanese metal artist whose practice explores the subtle transformations of space through form, balance, and material presence. This exhibition features Tanaka’s Mobile series.



Tanaka describes the metals he works with as materials that “melt and flow at extremely high temperatures at the Earth’s core, even generating gravity.” He further reflects that metals have given rise to free forms and structures shaped by human imagination. From these elemental properties, Tanaka felt compelled to extract pure form—to touch the resonance of primal energy embedded within metal. The Mobile series emerges from this pursuit, serving as an attempt to visualize that resonance and evoke sensations yet unseen. Each mobile is constructed upon a delicate balance between gravity and the Earth’s axis inherent in metal. As the work rotates freely in space, it embodies equilibrium, precariousness, and transience. Tanaka likens the mobile to a small Earth floating in space, leaving a distinct resonance within the senses of each viewer.
