Khibli Takahashi

A traveling painter who paints life

I paint without using any animal-derived materials and without using a brush.
It is based on my strong belief that I want to minimize the sacrifice and exploitation of animal lives.

The theme of my work is the scenery I met during my travels, the lives that live there, and the activities of people.
Scenery is something created when life and time overlap over and over again.
Also, when I paint that landscape, I am also living through the accumulation of life and time.

The moment I feel beautiful is created when the seasons, weather, time, light, wind, temperature, and my emotions all blend and connect.
For example, the sky at sunrise, the sunlight filtering through the trees, the scent of flowers after the rain, the cockroaches you meet in your room, and the cityscape dyed in the sunset.
They are ephemeral beauties that disappear in an instant, and the same moment will never come again.

By expressing the uniqueness of a landscape in a single picture, I want to convey the preciousness of that moment and the irreplaceable nature of life.
There are no boundaries created by humans, and everything blends and connects vaguely.
People, animals, plants, nature, time, and space. They influence and co-exist with each other.

I will continue to depict the existence of life that certainly lives in a beautiful and ambiguous world.
I hope my paintings will shake the hearts of those who see them and give them an opportunity to think about the existence of life.

And I hope that the world we live in will be a kind and harmonious place for more lives.
