Current Exhibition
February 2026 Art Exhibition
7artscafe, Yokohama’s unique fusion of a superfood-focused cafe and community art gallery, is pleased to announce its featured exhibition for February 2026, showcasing the work of Tania Herman. This month’s exhibition highlights a compelling collection that reflects 7artscafe’s ongoing mission to foster meaningful artistic exchange within the local community.
Fragments presents a selection of sculptural studies, tests, and small-scale works created in the intervals between major projects. While exhibitions often focus on finished sculptures, this exhibition turns attention to the slower, less visible rhythms of sculptural practice.
Beyond finished pieces and formal exhibitions lies an essential part of the work: drawing from life, testing materials, shaping fragments, and following intuition without the pressure of deadlines. Much of this work usually remains in the studio, unseen by audiences.
Rather than belonging to a single project, the works in Fragments form a constellation of pathways: traces of thinking through form, touch, and observation. Together, they reveal sculpture as an ongoing practice rather than a sequence of isolated outcomes.
About The Artist
Tania Herman (b. 1981) is a Tokyo-based visual artist of Russian origin focusing on sculpture and ceramics. She began her art education in academic drawing and painting during early childhood. While her career initially diverged from art, she continued her drawing practice and returned to art full-time.
Tania holds a Masters degree in Ceramics and Glass from the Royal College of Art, London. In 2021 she completed two years of research at The Tajimi City Pottery Design and Technical Centre (Ishoken), Japan.
She has been an International Academy of Ceramics (IAC) member since 2023.Having an interest in psychology, Tania investigates complex human experiences related to life ambiguity and subjectivity of perception; through sculpture, she explores human emotions such as fear, repressed anger, love, frustration, loss, etc. as the drivers and consequences of human decisions.
