    Sakurako Fujii Graduated from Kyoto University of Art and Design, Department of Information Design in 2018. Illustrator and graphic designer.
    Colorful brush strokes symbolizing physicality and black-and-white lines designed on data evoke the relationship between melody and rhythm.
    This rich "form" expressed through a back-and-forth between analog and digital forms is integrated with the intricately and intuitively drawn figures, and expresses the beauty of the body itself, transcending decoration.

    Shoko Chigira
    Born in Okinawa, currently resides in Tokyo. Graduated from Osaka University of Arts with a major in copperplate engraving.
    The theme of the "Sedimentation Series," which involves multiple dripping of white base material, is sedimentary life.
    The corals that make up the Shirahama beach in his hometown of Okinawa, which presents a major question to the artist's own idea that circulation is life, are the "accumulation" of life and death. It shows that our activities and the cycle of life are based on the "accumulation" of all kinds of foundations.
