Yui SAMEJIMA

Born in 1988, Kyoto.
2010 B.F.A in printmaking, Kyoto Seika University

Based in Kyoto, she produces and presents art works, mainly pictorial expressions.
Currently, she attempts to connect "the visible" and "the invisible" or to show the boundary between the two by using a method of painting that combines fragments of different things in terms of the concepts of time and existence.

Ryo SHINAGAWA

Born in 1987, Osaka.
Based in Kyoto.

Based on East Asian painting techniques, I continue to explore the possibilities of painting in the contemporary age while reconsidering cultural history. While developing a wide range of artistic expression, from traditional genres such as hanging scrolls and fusuma door paintings to modern architectural spaces, my work is centered on the question: "What is painting?"

Aiko YUNO

Born in 1993, Osaka.
Lives and works in Kyoto.
