For some reason, lovely elephants, butterflies, birds, girls and mysterious twins, anthropomorphic apples and soft serve ice creams.……Natsu Sakachi turns the motifs that children and girls love into mysterious characters and draws them into vivid multicolor paintings.
The unique creatures, which are cute but slightly scared, organically blend with the carefully painted color surfaces, increase the number of friends as if they were breaking cells, assimilate with plants, and play with each other innocently. I will change my appearance freely.
Among them, the most often depicted elephant is like a guardian angel that brings peace of mind to the hill. On the other hand, there are some dark things like twins and monsters that cause some anxiety. At first glance, in a seemingly fancy world, the fear of facing life and death of living things always flows through the bottom.
Recently, Saka himself experienced childbirth and realized the fetal movement of a new life has also changed his work.
The decorativeness has increased, and the sophisticated screen also depicts the appearance of infants and parents, and the world view, which can be said to be the hymns of life in which creatures chain, has emerged. For Saka, production is probably connected to daily growth without difficulty.
Born in Aichi Prefecture in 1973. Starting with the 2001 Yokai Festival (the Museum of Contemporary Art, Tokyo), Saka, who participated in Kazuno's group exhibition, held solo exhibitions at Noboru Koyama Yoshio Gallery and Marian Boe Ski Gallery in New York. The sculpture of a giant parent-child elephant, which was unveiled at Central Park in New York in 2005, was a big topic.
In this solo exhibition consisting of paintings and drawings, including the latest six masterpieces, please feel the warm world of Natsu Sakachi, which gently wraps the viewer.
The theme of this time, “Life”
It is finished in a content that allows you to see how the world view of the artist Natsu Sakachi, who became the mother of one human being, evolves further from the delicate and gentle previous works.
It is a tema that you will not forget even if you try to forget it.
He strongly appeals for the regeneration of the message that "we live."
Please look forward to the world depicting modern "conception" in an essential sense.
The first art book will be published in conjunction with the solo exhibition. Various projects such as goods and collaboration events are in progress.
