ARTIST

KINJO

With roots in Okinawa, he has been presenting paintings, sculptures, and performances based on American culture, which has a close relationship with Japan. In the process of repeatedly "drawing" and "erasing" symbols such as "eyes glowing in the dark," "product packages," and "snakes," the outlines fade and become ambiguous, transforming them into "personal beings" with a charming appearance like the artist's own portraits. The outline becomes blurred and fuzzy, and transforms into a "personal existence" with a charming appearance like the artist's own portraits. It is like a self-portrait for Kinjo, an act of delving into his own roots.
