Tagboat is pleased to present “Soul,” a solo exhibition by contemporary artist Yuta Fukazawa.
Yuta Fukazawa captures everyday moments and landscapes beautifully. In his exhibition “Soul,” he paints landscapes deeply connected to places like Kokubunji(国立市) and Toshima(豊島). He expresses objects that people often overlook with beauty and masterfully conveys the subtle nuances of transparent and concealed colors by layering them repeatedly.
In this fifth solo exhibition at tagboat, approximately 30 new artworks will be on display and available for purchase. Explore the hidden beauty within everyday life and experience his new works that awaken a sense of beauty.
