I visited the solo exhibition of HYKRX.
The venue is EUKARYOTE, a gallery in Gaienmae.
HYKRX, privacy, 2019
This exhibition is reportedly the artist’s first solo show at this location since the one held at “Saison Art Gallery,” EUKARYOTE’s predecessor.
There have been many inquiries about the works, and although I visited on the second day, many pieces had already been sold or reserved.
HYKRX, sweet, 2019
HYKRX’s works are painted in what is known as a street art style.
The stencils are meticulously handmade.
Reflecting the artist’s intent to keep prices accessible, the pieces were reasonably priced and relatively easy to acquire.

What lingered pleasantly was the artist’s attempt to transform negative perceptions into positive messages.

Lately, the momentum around street art has been remarkable.
I’ve heard talk of insiders driving the boom.
I hope it doesn’t turn into a mere money game.

据说本展是自EUKARYOTE的前身”Saison Art Gallery”举办个展以来,艺术家再次在此举办的个展。
作品咨询也非常多,我在第二天到访时,已有大量作品被售出或预订。
