Skoloct
Tsuyoshi Nakano is an artist who goes by “Skoloct” which also refers to the name of the creature that appears in his artwork and the title of the brand producing the fashion items featuring the creature. Corresponding to the ambiguous meaning of the word "Skoloct”, the creature, Skoloct has been non-stop-metamorphosing since its start and has been developing itself at each project. The attitude is as if the Skoloct refuses to be described by the world.
Skoloct’s borderless and flexible stance on producing art involves the viewers in the transmission of free thinking. The value of “what’s considered to be good" is almost meaningless in front of the idea of Skoloct which is constantly deconstructed and reconstructed by himself. The desire of the artist, Skoloct to "make some madness that shakes the planet” resonates with the creature, Skoloct. They form an accomplice relationship then create together.
We, who are looking at Skoloct, are no exception and may be colluded with them.
“Hysteric Glamor", "Stussy", "Undercover", "Takahiromiyashita The Soloist." “Vlove” and more. Up to now Skoloct has collaborated with a wide range of fashion brands not only in Japan but internationally. They embrace Skoloct as a concept and release it out to the world we live in, involving us. We see Skoloct as an art and simultaneously as a part of our lifestyle by wearing a piece of little something “v”. (Skoloct × Feb gallery Tokyo collaboration goods available at the venue).
The creature, Skoloct, is not very simple to be considered just an embodiment of the artist Tsuyoshi Nakano. The true phenomenon of Skoloct happens within the complexity where the artist, Skoloct and the creature, Skoloct define each other, and we as the viewers define their process of defining each other. It is a great state of realization/evolution for both the artist and the subject, the creature. It is great for us too to be contemporaries with today’s Skoloct.
Previously, Feb gallery Tokyo exhibited two paintings and a three-dimensional work by Skoloct for the opening exhibition, “Keep in touch”. In this solo exhibition, about 18 of his new paintings, small to large canvases. will be exhibited.
