Naka collar incense “avex” 2022

■Aoi Aoi
Born in Ibaraki Prefecture in 1992, he completed his master’s degree at Kyoto University of Arts in 2022. Based on the concept of “thinking about the finiteness of life because it is an age of symbiosis”, we try to include a swinging moment in the painting by treating methods that are easy to reflect emotions and noise of the human body – strokes and outlines with physicality, lines drawn unconsciously, etc., and using life-like motifs. The main exhibitions are “Re: Perspective” graf porch (The National Museum of Art, Osaka,” “Voice + Palermo” Satellite Project) “SHIBUYA STYLE vol.15” Seibu Shibuya Art Gallery “Collectors’ Collective vol.6″ Osaka” TEZUKAYAMA GALLERY, etc.
■Automo eye
Since 2015, he began producing works in black and white, and since 2018 he has used a lot of colors, and is known for his style that makes it look like a highly anonymous “existence” standing on the screen. While extremely objective, the style that can be seen as a very personal scene presents a scenery and scene that can be seen because necessary information such as the relationship between humans and the relationship between the work and the viewer has been scraped off.
■Kenta Kawabata
Born in Saitama Prefecture in 1994. In 2015, he entered the Department of Oil Painting, Faculty of Fine Arts, Tokyo University of the Arts. In 2019, he graduated as principal of oil painting and dean of the Faculty of Fine Arts. He is currently a doctoral student in the Oil Painting And Technique Materials Laboratory, Graduate School of Fine Arts, Tokyo University of the Arts. His main group exhibitions so far have been “KUMAEX2021 Kiyosumi Shirakawa” (2021, Tokyo), “Tsukuba Prize exhibition of paintings Ikebukuro Seibu Head Office Art Garry” (2021, Tokyo), and “Spectrum” (2021, Kanazawa Mercury Cave, Ishikawa Prefecture). His major awards include the Tsukuba Prize for Painting (2021) and the Bear Foundation Activity Support Project (2021), and his works have been collected at the Tokyo University of the Arts Museum and LS Co., Ltd.
■Naka collar incense
Born in 1994 in Nagano Prefecture. Graduated from Tokyo Zokei University in 2019. “Now, I cut out the symbols in front of me like a diary and incorporate them into my paintings, and in my daily life, new trends, buildings, techniques, and ways of expression are born, but on the other hand, there are things that are declining and disappearing.
Things that are commonplace in front of you will one day become less commonplace. You may notice the value of things after you lose them, or you may be completely forgotten. Decades or hundreds of years from now, what kind of way do you look in your work? – Naka Collar –
Key Awards: Selected, Wonder Seed (2017), CAF Masami Shiraishi Award (2018), Between the Arts Award (2020)
■Azusa Nozawa
Born in Shizuoka Prefecture in 1994. Graduated from Tokyo University of the Arts in 2019 with a major in oil painting. Her main solo exhibitions include “Shaken Her” (Ginza Tsutaya Shoten / Tokyo / 2022), “Furehotobori” (MEDEL SHU GALLERY / Tokyo / 2021), “× and No Hakuchumu” (hidarizingaro / Tokyo / 2018), and his main group exhibitions are “BLOOM” (Maison Ozmen / Paris / 2022) and “199X9” (199X9) shuuue/Tokyo/2021), “Hokoro and Afterimage” (MEDEL GALLERY SHU/Tokyo/2020), etc., and participated in ART TAIPEI in 2020-21 (MEDEL GALLERY SHU booth).
■Ken Tanishiki
Ken Tanishiki rethinks the unique japanese textile technology of wood-graining as a painting technique and is practicing new painting expressions. Tanishiki reinterpreted the wood grain that was born by using the end material of temple and shrine architecture as a doll, having roots in the Edo period, reinterpreting the material used based on his own experience, narrowing down the material used to used clothes and waste materials, and the culture and value peculiar to wood grain and traditional crafts that can be prayed and wished while drawing organic elements such as physicality, time, and raw sense derived from the original owner, Through painting, we are transforming into the present day.
■Mion Yamato
Born in Shiga Prefecture in 1990. In 2015, he graduated from Kyoto University of Art and Design Graduate School of Integrated Arts and Design. By repeating certain units and patterns, such as a series of dots or a constant curve, he creates works that cover the entire screen and space. His major solo exhibitions include “project N 74 Mio Yamato Mio” (2018, Tokyo Opera City Art Gallery, Tokyo) and “VIVID-STILL: Quiet and Vivid_” (2017, COHJU contemporary art / Kyoto). His major awards have been the Fundación Casa Wabi Woman Artist Residency Award (2020, CASA WABI Foundation) and the CAF Award 2015 Yumi Yamaguchi Award (2015, Foundation for the Promotion of Contemporary Art).
■Li Jing-ta-yu
Born in Tokyo in 1991. Graduated from The Graduate School of Research, Korea National University in 2018. From the standpoint of a third-generation Korean resident in Japan, he is developing productions based on a cross-sectional perspective on the nation and ethnicity. Using compositional citations from classical paintings and symbolic motifs, he approaches the context and structure of the majority, and creates flat works with multilayered structures using methods such as collages. His main exhibits include “Zainichi, Present, and Art” (2014), Musashi × Korea University”Suddenly Opens In Front of Me” (2015), “VOCA2020” (2020), “Heisei Art: Utakata and Rubble Debris 1989–2019” (2021), solo exhibition “Country of Symbols” (2021), and solo exhibition “SIMULATED WINDOW” (2022).
