"SYNESTHESIA" — introducing artist Nakamura Toru
Nakamura Toru
Born in Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture. He taught himself to paint, taking it up at the age of 30. Now based in Tokyo, he collaborates with apparel brands and creates graphic work for companies. The foundation of his style lies in the meeting of abstraction and pop. Blending these two elements on a single surface and drawing on touches of street culture and familiar cartoon imagery, he builds a graphical style that is far more than merely pop.

[Staff Comment]
A wealth of symbols is woven together in intricate fashion, and to me it feels exactly like a portrait of our inner selves and our dizzyingly shifting thoughts.✨ It made me wonder — if I could look at the inside of my own mind from the outside, would it be this lively, too?👀(Kawahara)
[Exhibition Information]
"SYNESTHESIA"
For this exhibition we have gathered ten up-and-coming artists of wide-ranging sensibilities, in the hope that art might help each visitor refresh their senses and nurture new perspectives. The title "SYNESTHESIA" refers to a blending of the senses — perceiving color in letters or sounds, or form in taste or scent. Through the diverse expressions these ten artists weave together, we hope you will encounter something that resonates with what lies within you.
