” Coming Home ”
new paintings
opening Friday, September 9th 6-9pm!
Japanese painter Yumiko Kayukawa jokingly says “My father is Ninja, my mother is Geisha…and I was raised by wolves!” and that playful irreverence is also seen in her dynamic, rock-pop, color saturated paintings of independent women surrounded by animal totems and Japanese traditional motifs. As much influenced by the natural world as by fashion, film, and hard rock, Kayukawa’s paintings are vivid slices of east-western fusion full of symbolism and sly puns.
Kayukawa’s celebrates her ten year of exhibiting by returning to Roq La Rue Gallery where her career was first launched a decade ago. We hope you will join us for the opening night party!
