NKSIN is a self-taught painter and uses airbrush to create his works. Born between the Philippines and Japan, he spent his childhood in a closed environment with frustration. NKSIN’s unique interpretation of contemporary social issues, especially those between people, is a provocative yet humorous way to reflect his experiences and thoughts in his artistic activities from an ironic perspective. NKSIN’s unique spray-painting style is strongly influenced by the American animation designs of the 90’s. The children that NKSIN expresses are also works of self-questioning about their ignorance in response to the information they learn for the first time, including themselves.

Art is Cai Yi Xiu’s lonely game field. The works are the critical point of his contact, dialogue and interaction with external time and space. Forgetting things and I is often Cai Yixiu’s mental state of emptying himself and removing his mind of distinction in his creations. As a result, the artist’s life attributes enter the large lacquer medium covered by layers through the traces of time, and become the superimposed image of the object image and the self.

Born in 1985 in Ehime, Japan, Kyohei Kyomori graduated from Istituto Marangoni in 2008. He aims to create a unique visual language by reinterpreting the ornamentation found in all forms of art from the East to the West through a contemporary perspective applied in his graphic works. Having thoroughly studied the role and nature of decoration in ceramics, architecture, clothing, and seals, Kyomori has transformed his work through a production technique rooted in the idea of handicraft. His works are the result of continuous reflection on the idea, aesthetics and decorative history. At a time when people are losing the human aspect of fundamentally using their own hands of modelling and expressing an object, Kyomori offers an opportunity to re-investigate human activity in our digital shift.

Andy Dixon Biography
B. 1979, Vancouver, Canada. Lives and works in Los Angeles, CA, USA.

Exploring themes of decadence, patronage, and the relationship between art and wealth, Andy Dixon draws inspiration from such opulent artifacts as Flemish still-lifes, Versace silk shirts, and auction house objects. By layering historical references with contemporary social commentary, Dixon plays with the tropes of art history and questions the inherent value in luxuries from past and present. An underlying self-deprecation stirs beneath the surface of his candy-colored canvases – a poignant study in the psychology of value.

Todd James Biography
B. 1969, New York, NY, USA. Lives and works in New York, NY, USA

Born in 1969 in New York, NY, Todd James is an American artist who began his career as a young adult in the early 1980s in the New York City subway system. Through his adolescent graffiti works on NYC’s subway trains, painting as REAS, James mastered the practical challenges of good design at an early age. Like many other graffiti writers, he was inspired by cartoons and often channeled politics and humor into his work. But unlike most, his career seamlessly bridged the gap between the worlds of graffiti, commercial art, and fine art, and he remains both one of the most influential and inventive graffiti writers of any era.
