Ran. is an artist based in Fukuoka Prefecture who enjoys overwhelming popularity among women in their teens and twenties.
His portraits are characterized by delicate analog-like lines and digital colors. His emotional portrayals of young people's modern views on love have earned him praise as an "emo god." His accompanying comments strike a chord with viewers and have sparked sympathy and discussion among Gen Z.

Comment from the artist
"The theme of this exhibition is 'drama' and I have drawn many dramatic scenes that reside in moments in a lifetime!! I am looking forward to hearing your impressions and meeting you all. I will be there on the 17th and 18th, so please come and see it!!"
About the solo exhibition
This will be Ran.'s first solo exhibition in Tokyo and will be held at +ART GALLERY.
The artist is scheduled to be present in person on February 17th and 18th.
In addition, this exhibition will feature 20 specially created works, all of which will be sold as high-quality giclee prints, limited to 30 copies.
There are several reasons why she is so popular with women.
One of these is his ability to capture the imagery and the story he tells along with his work.
Furthermore, the women she portrays are in a contradictory yet coexisting relationship of "living strong, cool" and "weakly accepting," and she portrays female images, situations, and scenes that any woman can empathize with.
Participation in a wide range of collaborations and auctions, etc.
Not only has he launched various brands and published books, but he has also collaborated with sake, produced original artwork, and had his works sold at auctions, making him a currently popular artist.
We also plan to sell limited edition goods at the venue.
More details will be announced on social media at a later date.
Part of the works for sale
The works will be available for sale on a first-come, first-served basis from 11am on February 12th at the +ART Online Shop or in-store (+ART GALLERY).
