gallery UG is pleased to present “Carve, Paint, Reveal — Three Artists to Watch Now” at Kobe Hankyu from November 26 (Wed) to December 9 (Tue), 2025.
The exhibition will feature works by Takashi ONISHI, Takaoki TAJIMA, and Kunihiko NOHARA.
Please visit if you are in the area.
This exhibition brings together three artists gaining recognition both in Japan and abroad:
Takashi Onishi — known for his vivid cinnabar-red surfaces that weave tradition and innovation, and for serving as Director of the Kudoyama Art Festival.
Takaki Tajima — the fifth generation in a family of sculptors, whose practice has expanded from wood carving to two-dimensional works, earning broad popularity in recent years.
Kunihiko Nohara — whose wood-based sculptures evoke a universal resonance beyond language, garnering high acclaim.
Each artist has forged a distinct expressive world while continuing to explore new possibilities. We invite you to experience where their artistic journeys stand today.
