Asai Une

Born in Wakayama in 1990, lives in Tokyo. Artist activities will begin in 2021.

From an early age, I have a phenomenon where undulating, transparent objects appear in my field of vision when concentrating on something, and I create works with the motif of “undulation” from a desire to pursue that mysterious identity.

In particular, since they often appear in sight during meditation, “undulation” is used in the work to express the world view of meditation.

That collective formed by “undulation” awakens a primitive sense in viewers and questions the way the world is and how it is perceived.

As for his activities, he has vigorously presented his works at solo and group exhibitions, mainly in Japan, and has received many awards at domestic public exhibitions.

Major exhibitions include Ishikawa Gallery (solo exhibition, 2022, Tokyo), 100 people 10 (open call exhibition, 2021, Tokyo), Art Stage OSAKA (art fair, 2022, Osaka), ART MOMENTS JAKARTA (art fair, 2022, Indonesia), and Ginza Tsutaya Bookstore Collectors Club (group exhibition, 2022, Tokyo).
