Artists

Shoko Nakazawa
Shoko Nakazawa began her career as a graphic designer and illustrator and has created a strong fan base with her indie soft vinyl monsters.

In March 2021, amid the pandemic, Nakazawa produced and exhibited her first two oil paintings for "Healing x Healing," an exhibition curated by Takashi Murakami at Kaikai Kiki Gallery and began to attract the attention of collectors in Japan and abroad.

In September of the same year, she presented 11 oil paintings in an exhibition at Hidari Zingaro in Nakano. The exhibition was a great success, and she began to concentrate on painting.

In September, Nakazawa held her first solo exhibition of artwork, "Kagehinata" at Hidari Zingaro in Nakano, Tokyo, and has been presenting new works one after another through a series of exhibitions.

In addition to exhibitions in Japan, Kaikai Kiki Gallery has also exhibited works from its booth at art fairs worldwide, including Art Basel Hong Kong, Taipei Dan-Dai, and The Armory Show in New York. The works, with their lovable iconic characters, have become very popular, especially in Asia, and have been sold to collectors worldwide.

This time, Kaikai Kiki Gallery will finally host a large-scale solo exhibition of her work. Nakazawa will create more than 20 new paintings, including a large work three meters high and six meters wide, which will be completed by assembling six panels to fit the gallery's space. She will present a series of new paintings featuring the artist's original iconic monsters Byron and Seadras, and a young girl who seems to be a projection of the artist's inner self.
