Hiroshi Mori
Japanese artist Hiroshi Mori earned a Master's degree at Tokyo University of the Arts in 2013. There, he studied painting production by the use of new media. Influenced by the Rimpa School of traditional Japanese painting and modern animation ("anime") culture, Mori combines traditional art with modern expression and technologies, aiming to express the anxiousness towards reality and hopes for the future by images full of rich symbolic metaphors. Hiroshi Mori likes to create novel art. During the development of his “Religious" painting series, he first tried using digital technologies to inject gold base tone into the artworks without using real gold. After multiple tests, a new artistic technique was born. As for his interest in blending new technologies into his artworks, he explains, “As a contemporary artist, I want to make use of the latest technologies as a testament to living in this age.”

Kloé Vano
Kloé Vano lives and works in Cannes, France. Her abstract paintings have been exhibited in Europe, the United States and Japan. Her lyrical abstractions open the reservoir of emotion and affect, exploring color, space, depth, and textures.
Disguised images of the unconscious, Vano's work succeeds in surprising us by its evocative capacity. When she obscures an image, we recall the techniques of Gerard Richter. When she looks to evoke water and roses, we think of Monet.
Through it all, however, the artist keeps her personality and originality intact. Her sensitivity outweighs all other considerations, and it is the unexpected which she embraces.
"I am free of all intention, of all systems, of all trends; I have no program, nor style, nor pretension. I love the uncertainty, the infinite and permanent insecurity" - text by Kloé Vano.

Woods davy
For the past thirty years Davy has worked with stone in unaltered states, either from the sea or the earth, incorporating them into assemblages of precarious balance that appear to be in flux. Art writer Shana Nys Dambrot observed that Davy’s work is essentially a “kind of collaboration between artist and nature,” one in which the artist “prefers to cooperate with the pre-existing uniqueness and objecthood of his materials.”
He might be thought of as among the first “green” Postmodern artists. In fact, he comes from a long tradition of post 60s artists, who either directly or just by their practical sensibility, engage Eastern or Zen notions of oneness with nature, organic systems of change as engines of art composition, and non-disruptive respect for natural material in unaltered states. These works manage this, as they illuminate the poetry of nature. As Holly Meyers observed in the Los Angeles Times, there is “something thrilling about a work that appears to defy its own natural properties,” while at the same time one can appreciate the work’s “meditative reverence.”

Maiko Kitagawa
Since ancient times, people have had a fear of darkness. To acknowledge that fear, many stories have emerged since ancient times. According to MAIKO, a young painter of 29 years,Black color in her painting is “the feeling of material in darkness”.
In the corner of darkness, it carries weight which she feels theexistence or indication of something unknown, thus the stories.
She enjoyed art since she was very young. Her mother bought her story books for kids and took her art shows and museums often. As her mother lived in South America, she visited the homes of local friends, and ate and played together with them. Unique South American cultures left a strong impression on young MAIKO. The colorful, decorated festival that depicts the closeness of life and death, the faces and costumes of different cultures were all part of a childhood experience that aroused her imagination. The strong sunshine in Latin America strongly influenced her express dense images and contrasting darkness. The solid black color in her current works depicts natural fear and the implication emerging from the dark. MAIKO’s dark artworks were inspired by her upbringing in Latin America at such an early age.
An American animation film director once saw her works and said: “The movement is like animation stories!” MAIKO has the creative power to continue and produce deep, wide and dark stories.

Fusako Ekuni
Fusako Ekuni hails from Tokyo, Japan. Over the past 18 years, her style has varied from a traditional Japanese style to contemporary abstract. A contemplative artist, she now creates homages to the pre-verbal universe, where the color and light interact.
Ekuni layers pure dry pigment and glue, working on several paintings in different stages simultaneously, in a process that can take months. In Japanese, this is known as “iwaenogu.” The colors in her paintings interact magically, almost invisibly, until they complete their harmonic journey. The ritual inherent to Fusako Ekuni's paintings involves the physics of the process itself.
Fusako Ekuni is graduated from Musashino Art University, Faculty of Visual Communication Design and Musashino Gakuen, the faculty of Japanese Art Style Painting.
