Shiki Taira “LOVE×2 Yokai SHOW -THE SECOND- ~Nihon Ayashi Banashi~”
Shiki Taira is a young Japanese-style painter who expresses her original worldview through motifs such as yokai in the medium of Nihonga (Japanese-style painting).
Following her 2018 outing, she once again held a solo exhibition at “Art Fair Tokyo 2019.”

Shiki Taira draws original yokai such as “Ichimoku-sama” and kimono-clad women with careful craftsmanship and a dose of humor.
Many works were on view at this exhibition, and nearly all of them were marked with red-dot stickers (sold), demonstrating her steady popularity.

A graduate of Tokyo University of the Arts, Shiki Taira is an artist whose sure technique and painterly skill are matched by the playfulness of her motifs.
Shiki Taira. Left: “Beauty and the Ungaikyo,” size 8, 175,000 yen (excl. tax). Right: “Beauty with Little Demon,” size 10, 250,000 yen (excl. tax).
The worldview in which a kimono-clad bijinga coexists with a contrasting yokai is delightful, isn’t it!
Shiki Taira. Left: “Beauty and Enma’s Pendulum Divination,” size 50, 680,000 yen (excl. tax). Center: “Nihon Ayashi Banashi: Yokai of Kyushu and Okinawa.” Right: “Nihon Ayashi Banashi: Yokai of Chugoku and Shikoku.” Both size 8, 200,000 yen (excl. tax) each.
As she is still a young artist, her prices remain modest.
There is a sense that they will continue to rise going forward.

A splendid, well-conceived art catalog was also distributed for free and was very well received by visitors. Shiki Taira’s charming personality strikes a fascinating balance with her humorous works.
We look forward to her ever-growing success.
