Midnight Zone: A Solo Exhibition by Julien Charrière
The art gallery Perrotin Tokyo plunges into uncharted territory with Midnight Zone, a solo exhibition by Berlin-based French-Swiss artist Julien Charrière. Known for venturing to the edges of the Earth — volcanic craters, arctic ice fields, nuclear ruins —Charrière transforms fieldwork into poetic, multi-sensory installations.
Merging photography, sculpture, video and performance, his practice reimagines how we understand nature, time and our place within it. Midnight Zone extends beyond traditional environmental art; it's a study of where human ambition meets planetary scale. Expect cross-disciplinary echoes— science, philosophy, sound —all orbiting a central question: How do we inhabit a world that increasingly defies comprehension?
Charrière's work doesn't just depict the Anthropocene—it drags us into its depths. Rarely has the intersection of Earth's beauty, decay and climate urgency felt so immersive. This is an exhibition that will make you slow down—and look deeper.
Open Tuesday through Saturday, 11am–7pm.
