Masaharu Shin
Using the existing format of painting, he contemplates what art means to us living in the present age. He combines not only paints but also scraps of clothing, interior tiles, photographs, and other materials collected from various sources, and reconstructs the relationship between them to compose his paintings. This relationship evokes invisible relations between people, art, and society that exist outside of the picture plane.

Influenced by punk and rock music and their cultural influences, his works often use satirical motifs such as rebellion and indignation against society.

Infinity Japan Contemporary Art Show 2023
2023. 8. 04 Fri. - 2023. 6. 06 Tue.
HAYATO MACHIDA
Kazuhiko Ifuku
Saneyuki Matsumoto
Chiharu Yakushigawa
Infinity Japan Contemporary Art Show 2023, a contemporary art fair in Taiwan, will be held at Hotel Royal-Nikko Taipei from Friday, August 4 - Sunday, August 6.
DMOARTS presents the works of four artists, HAYATO MACHIDA, Ifuku Kazuhiko, Saneyuki Matsumoto, and Chiharu Yakushigawa.
[Artist]
HAYATO MACHIDA
Born in 1995 in Okinawa, Japan. He began painting on his own, and when he was 21 years old, he met Yuken Teruya in New York, where he was studying abroad, and began working as an artist after returning to Japan. His paintings are composed of elements inherited from Japanese and American pop culture, subcultures, and local culture, which deeply influenced him while growing up. The ambivalent feelings that form the concept of his work are born from his doubts about his own sense of "being alive" and his thoughts on the social and political situation at times. The white sprinkled throughout the work is the presence that emerges when you reach a point where you feel like disappearing, and it represents the confusion or neutralization of psychological ideas and biological instincts.
instagram:@hayato_machida_
Kazuhiko Ifuku
Born in 1979. His works are characterized by colorful colors and relaxed lines.
Major works as an illustrator include artwork for JR's "OSAKA POWER LOOP" wrapping train, FRED PERRY catalog, New Balance T-shirt design, Converse wedding limited edition sneakers, TSUTAYA book cover, and high school English textbook "All aboard cover of high school English textbook "All aboard!"
In addition, goods collaborating with Ultraman, Yoshimoto, Doraemon, Minions, and Sanrio were released from the general merchandise store ASOKO and became a hot topic.
instagram:@kazuhiko_ifuku
Saneyuki Matsumoto
Born in Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture in 1988.
Since 2017, he has been working as an illustrator, and after 2022, he will switch to being an artist in order to create more conceptual works.
He currently exhibits his paintings at galleries in Japan and abroad.
instagram:@m.saneyuki
Chiharu Yakushigawa
She has developed his own unique abstract paintings based on the theme of the relationship between "pairs". In her "Right Hand and Left Hand" series, in which she applies paint directly to her right and left hands and paints by hand, she uses pigments she has mixed himself to express a mixture of the individual and the individual with each other.
In addition, she continues to present a variety of methods of expression for each work, such as her "Knock" series, which focuses on the act of knocking, a signal before entering the other's territory, regarding the relationship between the self and others in a society with advanced social networking services.

ART OSAKA 2023
2023. 7. 28 Fri. - 2023. 7. 30 Sun.
hin
Saki Matsumura
Koga Miura
Rei Kizumoto
ART OSAKA 2023 (Galleries section), an art fair of contemporary art, will be held from July 28 (Fri.)-30 (Sun.) [Preview: July 28 (Fri.)] at Osaka City Central Public Hall.
DMOARTS is pleased to present the works of four artists: hin, Saki Matsumura, Koga Miura, and Rei Kizumoto.
[Artists]
hin
Artist.
Born in Chiba, Japan in 1990 and currently lives in Tokyo. Graduated from Tama Art University, Department of Graphic Design.
The concept of the production is to explore and create a therapy by Digital Detox.
The idea of using pixelated expressions with the intention of "materializing information" and painting them as if they were sprays or brushes was the inspiration for the technique he calls virtualspray. The artist attempts to antidote the overload of information from the outside and the inside.

instagram:@hin_ss
Saki Matsumura
Born in Nagano, Japan in 1993, he completed his graduate studies in painting at Kyoto University of Art and Design in 2017. Currently based in Kyoto.
He creates dynamic paintings by combining hard-edged colored surfaces created by spraying and silkscreening with uneven surfaces covered with heavy layers of paint. The clash of different elements creates a strange harmony that opens up the imagination to new sensations.

instagram:@sakimatsumura_
Koga Miura
Born in Tokyo, Japan in 1997, he completed his master's degree in oil painting at Kyoto University of Arts in 2021.
He creates two-dimensional works based on the theme of exploring the "boundary between the conscious and the unconscious.
In order to reduce the arbitrariness that occurs in the process of giving form to an image, he decides on color schemes and compositions in advance using a random number of instructions, and then gives form to them through manual work.
By mixing the mechanical impression created by the repetition of simple work following instructions and the anomalous expression created by hand-painting, the artist is able to perceive both his own assumptions and unexpected phenomena.
By going back and forth between the assumed and the unexpected, I want to express the beauty that is created by the combination of various external factors that exist contrary to my own intentions.

instagram:@koga_miura2343
Rei Kizumoto
Born in Shiga Prefecture in 1998, he graduated from Kyoto City University of Arts in 2021 with a BFA in oil painting, and from Kyoto University of Arts in 2023 with an MFA in oil painting in the field of arts and crafts.
Colored or cut felt is placed on the floor.
The felt absorbs and reflects light, and the danger of color lurks.
I follow the light as I push it onto the screen with time and space.
He creates his works in dialogue with the materials, colors, and himself.

■ Artist Statement
Kurashiki has consistently considered the distance between himself and others in the solitary existence of human beings absolutely cut off by the material wall of the body, or the categorization attached to it. In his works, Kurashiki deals with multiple media such as performance and installation, mainly two-dimensional works using transfer techniques, and attempts to communicate closely with others, seek coexistence, or fuse with others. For example, he creates works in order to even out the divide created by the fact that we have separate bodies, and to coexist with others in the real world. Or, as the ultimate form of such an act, production as an act of aiming for nirvana, in which each being is freed from its body, and while existing as an individual, blends into the whole and becomes one with the whole. Or, as a countermeasure to loneliness, the act of weaving a temporary (assumed) close relationship between the viewer and oneself by somehow inserting the work between them.

■ Artist Statement
His works are mainly based on subcultures and Japanese illustration expressions of the 80s and 90s.
The theme of his work is to preserve pop culture, such as character expression, which is not often discussed in Western art history, in the form of art rather than illustration.
Each portrait depicts the same face. This is based on the artist's will to preserve the illustrative expression of the period in which the work was created, and the idea that by depicting the same, unifying face, the work can be viewed as if it were the viewer or a closely related person.
He works mainly with acrylics on canvas.

Miura Koga
He creates two-dimensional works with the theme of searching for the "boundary between consciousness and unconsciousness". In order to reduce the arbitrariness that arises in the process of shaping an image, he primarily decides on the color scheme and composition in advance by means of random numbers, and takes the method of shaping it manually.
By mixing the mechanical impression created by repeating simple tasks as instructed and the irregular facial expressions created by hand drawing on the screen, you can perceive both your own assumptions and unexpected phenomena.
By going back and forth between the expected and the unexpected, I want to express the beauty that comes from the combination of various external factors that exist contrary to my own expectations.
Major solo exhibitions include “come and go” (DMOARTS Osaka / 2022) and “MtK +” (MtK Contemporary Art Kyoto / 2022).

Mana Kawamura
Texts quoted from domestic and foreign literary works are expressed in acrylic paintings by the phenomenon that the paint flows down and only the outline of the letters remains, and the gods and animals that appear in Japanese mythology such as "Kojiki" and modern times. He creates oil paintings inspired by motifs drawn in novels.
In the relationship between "characters" and "pictures" that are born side by side, I am conscious of creating meaning while crossing both works.

Rei Kizumoto
One color plane overlaps another color plane. Space is created there, and colors influence each other. This phenomenon that occurs at the moment when the faces overlap always makes my heart flutter.
The colors and shapes of the placed surfaces sway between my consciousness and unconsciousness, and harmonize on the support.
We can perceive hardness and softness through sight. It begins with recognizing colors, shapes and textures. I want to try to express from small sensations that I forget in my daily life.

Koga Miura
With the main themes of "consciousness and unconsciousness," "intention and randomness," and "production and non-production," he creates two-dimensional works using random numbers and instructions.
In the production process, such as composition and color scheme, the process that requires the artist's decision-making is determined by random numbers and output through his own body.
In the process of repeating simple tasks according to instructions, he creates accidental facial expressions that he cannot control.

hin
Artist, born 1990 in Chiba, Japan, graduated from Tama Art University, Department of Graphic Design in 2014.
The concept of the production is to explore and create a therapy by Digital Detox.
The pixel representation is intended to "materialize information," and the idea of "painting the representation as if it were a spray or brush" gave rise to a technique called "virtualspray.
Attempt to detoxify the information overload from outside and inside.
He has had a solo exhibition "Virtual Spray" in Korea (LKIFgallery ,2022), a solo exhibition "Deep paper" in Tokyo (PAGIC gallery ,2021), participated in an art fair at "art stage osaka" (DMOARTS ,2022), and held a live painting event at " Livepainting" (OIL by Bijutsu Techo ,2020).

Hal Osawa
Born in 1997 in Tokyo, Japan. In his previous works, he has created works by running a once-drawn work through a copying machine and then drawing a printed version of the work. The copy machine is a symbol of mass production. He has been creating his own bugs on this machine. From this point on, the artist "drew" and "printed" at the same time by dropping ink directly onto the glass part of the copier that performs the exposure process.
This made it possible to visualize the act of dragging itself, uniting the body and machine where they had been separated.
The silver foil base makes light the support, and the use of CMYK suggests a photocopier printing process.
Solo exhibitions include "ERROR" (MEDEL GALLERY SHU, 2022), major group exhibitions include "KUA ANNUAL 2022 'in Cm¦ Ghost, Labyrinth, Multiverse'" (Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum, 2022), "Hajimari" (ARTDYNE, 2022), "SHIBUYA STYLE vol. 15" (Seibu Shibuya, 2021), "In between" (SkiiMa Gallery, 2021) (@Kutsuna Miwa)

Art Fair Asia Fukuoka has been held since 2015 and is the only art fair in the Kyushu, Chugoku, Shikoku and Okinawa regions.
Since Fukuoka has geographically and historically served as a window to Asia, we have adopted the theme "To be a bridge between Japan and the Asian art market" and aim to create a global art fair that introduces artists who will carry the future of Asia on their shoulders, introduces the attractiveness of domestic culture and art to Asia, and revitalizes the Asian art market. -
MIE TAKAHASHI SOLO EXHIBITION WORKS
2022. 9. 29 Thu. - 2022. 10. 10 Mon.
We are pleased to present "WORKS," a solo exhibition by Kanagawa Prefecture-based artist Mie Takahashi.
Takahashi is an artist who creates sculptures mainly using terra cotta as a material. Molded from drawings he writes down on a daily basis, his works are well received for their vivid colors and matte texture. This solo exhibition, "WORKS," will focus on displaying works that are spontaneously created in the course of his life's work, and will introduce a wide range of Takahashi's works in his first solo exhibition in Fukuoka. We hope you will take this opportunity to view the exhibition.
*DMOARTS will exhibit at Art Fair Asia Fukuoka, which will be held simultaneously at Fukuoka International Congress Center from 9/30 (Fri.) to 10/3 (Mon.) during the exhibition period.
