For this exhibition, TORAJIRO will present his latest works, newly created especially for the exhibition.

The artist conveys inner conflict, loneliness, and social oppression through melancholic expressions of young men with well-trained physiques. Animals are portrayed in a supportive, empathetic role, emphasizing coexistence with nature using a gentle and soft touch with delicate color tones.

TORAJIRO graduated from the Department of Japanese Painting, Musashino Art University. After studying in New York City, he began working in design and adopted digital methods including Photoshop, gradually beginning to paint more in oils. He currently creates works using acrylic and exhibits mainly in Tokyo.
