Statement

Saccharani's paintings are composed of geometric shapes such as continuous circles and squares, dynamic brush strokes, paintings of plants and clouds, and a combination of the artist's unique vivid colors. They expand the imagination of the story and create art that leaves a lasting impression on the viewer's mind.

This time, YUGEN Gallery will hold its first solo exhibition in Fukuoka at its new Fukuoka base, YUGEN Gallery FUKUOKA (Tenjin).

Saccharani's creative policy is to respect the culture and customs of his family and region. This exhibition will feature paintings and sculptures that focus on everyday life, which is at the center of his interest.

In addition, we will be providing light snacks and drinks to visitors between 4:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. on October 12th (Sat.), 13th (Sun.), and 14th (Mon.).

Anyone is welcome to participate, so please feel free to drop by.

We look forward to seeing you all there.
