The Ultimate Magic to Save Us is You
Takayuki Hara

26.03-12.04.2015

Born in Tokyo, Japan, London-based artist Takayuki Hara's work evolves from the idea of shapeshifting: it is an antithesis of boundaries and intransigence of human tendencies. His unique ability lies within the transformation of this idea into graphic and intricate linear drawings. His seemingly eclectic collections of influences are tied together and well-digested, feeding his work visually and conceptually. Hara studied Japanese Literature: Creative Writing in Japan, the rich narrative elements of his work come from the background as a writer. His work has been exhibited widely in the Uk, and internationally including United States, Germany and Poland, and numerous Art Fairs across the globe. Recently his work was shown in European Parliament in Brussels, and he is commissioned to have a solo show at Manggha Museum of Japanese Art and Technology in Krakow, Poland in 2015.
