Cherry Garden was painted in spring of 2012. I had a studio in Berlin with a big cherry garden, and painted outside. I simply wanted to create big piece outdoors, showing not only blooming trees but the nature itself. Picturing cherry flowers and moving shadows of trees as well. Light and shadow changed one another all the time, and for me it was like talking to Universe. Shadows changed with moving sun, with clouds in the sky and with wind in trees. Sun moves from East to West, but shadows on the ground moved from West to East. Light is opposite of Dark, like positive opposite to negative. Different, yet, there's no shadow without light, we wouldn't be able to say what light is, if we didn't know the darkness. In attempt to show this constant change, i used silver and pearl pigments when i worked on this piece. And so the painting changes, depending on where source of light is.

Japan
Yuki Itoda was born in Japan in 1982, a third generation Tokyo resident. He works in a variety of media, including oil, acrylic, spray paint, and neon. His work draws on an array of techniques ranging from traditional oil painting to graffiti and experimental video. Sometimes starkly simple, elsewhere striped and patterned like tacky retro jumpsuits seen through a kaleidoscope, his works alternate between an endearing vulnerability and an infectious retinal assault. Prolific Japanese artist and founder of Geisai, Takashi Murakami, took early notice of his work and became Yuki's first commercial collector in 2006. In 2007, Itoda collaborated with the group AVAF on the exhibition "Space for your Future: Recombining the DNA of Art and Design" at the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo (MOT). More recently, Itoda was invited to participate in the 2009 Armory Show VIP Reception at the St. Regis Residences. The group show, to which Itoda contributed over 70 paintings, was titled "The Girls from Kyoto and other Japanese Contemporary Masters," and received immediate critical attention.
