Yuki Nishimoto
Sumi-e artist. Born in 1988 in Kagoshima Prefecture. Belongs to Jennyette LLC. Creates works that pursue "dynamism" and "strength" with a bold yet delicate touch. In 2012, he won the World Best Work Award for "EMBRACING OUR DIFFERENCES" in the US. Since then, he has been active both in Japan and abroad, performing live painting in Hong Kong, China, and other places. He has been active in a wide range of fields, including creating a mural at Fukuoka Airport, winning three awards at the advertising award "Clio Entertainment," designing collaborative T-shirts, the cover of the Defense White Paper, and background footage for the NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen.

Yoh Nagao
After building a career as a graphic designer and illustrator, he began his career as an artist. In 2012, he moved to Berlin, where he is currently engaged in fieldwork to build close relationships with local communities, driven by his deep interest in ethnology and cultural anthropology. He has traveled around the world, including Namibia, Mexico, Mongolia, and India, and the knowledge and experiences he has gained from these journeys are reflected in his work. He is currently based in Nagoya. This exhibition will feature collages that reconstruct objects and tools that are taken for granted in modern society, and are based on the theme of "future indigenous peoples." Through his unique artworks that skillfully use fashion magazine clippings and other materials, he challenges the authority of art.

Itoshi Sakhrani
Born in Tokyo in 1987, he has been familiar with oil painting since childhood and grew up in an environment where different cultures intersect. Of British, Indian and Okinawan descent, he was educated at an international school and a Japanese public school, and after graduating he experienced a variety of jobs. He began working full-time as a painter in 2020 and has been attracting attention for his unique style of expression. Saccharani's work is characterized by strong brushstrokes and thick layers of paint, and will be showcasing powerful abstract paintings in which the colors seem to be released into a four-dimensional world through his body and soul.
