Steve Turner is pleased to present Hybrids, a solo exhibition of new paintings by Shohei Takasai. In combining disparate imagery, Takasaki thinks of his studio as a laboratory in which he experiments with different mixtures of words, images, colors and compositions. He describes his paintings as something in between two extremes, just as a child is something in between their two parents. They are a reconciliation of muscle and mind with his process encompassing much personal reflection. A good day in the studio will yield both a good painting and some self awareness.
Shohei Takasaki (born 1979, Saitama, Japan), is a self-taught artist who grew up in Japan before moving to Portland and later Sydney, where he now lives. He has had solo exhibitions at Common Gallery, Tokyo (2018 & 2022); Nadif a/p/a/r/t, Tokyo (2021); Nationale, Portland (2018) and Upfor Gallery, Portland (2017). This is his first exhibition at Steve Turner, Los Angeles.
