Rikako Kawauchi
WAITINGROOM (Tokyo) is pleased to present Humans and Tigers, a solo exhibition by Rikako Kawauchi, on view from Thursday, November 6 through Sunday, December 21, 2025. This exhibition is part of Art Week Tokyo 2025. Kawauchi has long explored the body through an interest in food and the acts associated with eating. Her inquiry extends to binary oppositions such as body and mind, self and other, and further draws inspiration from South American and African myths that can be seen as metaphors for these dualities. Working across a wide range of media—including painting, drawing, neon, wire, and marble—Kawauchi consistently places “line” at the core of her practice. Lines vividly reveal both physicality and spirituality, capturing the body’s movements and emotions with a sense of immediacy and speed in her brushwork. For this exhibition, Kawauchi focuses in particular on the duality between animals (tigers) and humans, presenting a body of new works that investigate this relationship.
