From October 16th until November 5th, Ginza Tsutaya will host an exhibition of works from Kyoto-born artist Yujiro Ueno. He graduated from the Okinawa Prefectural College of Arts with a specialization in oil painting in 2019, and has participated in a number of exhibitions since then.
Ueno's works are inspired by traditional ink wash painting, the brush strokes of impressionist painters, and the multi-layered approach found in ukiyo-e works. He typically focuses on depicting the qi (the life force or energy) of living beings in his art, which results in some unique creations.
For more of Ueno's work, he can be found on Instagram here.
